A volume of short sharp stories that present alternative or unconsidered visions of the future; stories that draw attention to the potential impact of cutting-edge science and technology on society and humanity.

In addition to established SF authors such as Tim Maughan, Geoff Ryman, Simon Ings, and Ken MacLeod, the anthology features stories by producers, civil servants, artists, and more - delivering a broader appreciation of what the future might hold.

This is science fiction with intent, providing quick bursts of conjecture and insight, guaranteed to both entertain and stimulate.
