Scenarios of the future: Two histories of the 21st century

One way to understand what future events might await us is to develop elaborate, complete scenarios of what life might be like as a result of new designs, inventions, and technologies.

The purpose of this note is to recommend two recent books that expand upon the genre:
Adrian Hon's "A History of the Future in 100 Objects" and Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway's "The Collapse of Western Civilization: A View from the Future"
