“Prediction or Influence? A History of Books That Forecast the Future” by Isabelle Turner from Printerinks |
Here’s an Infographic of all the times science fiction books
predicted the future. We call it science fiction because the technology
doesn’t exist or couldn’t exist but every now and then the science
comes true.
Isabelle Turner from Printerinks created this expansive chart of books that forecast the future.

Apparently that Stand on Zanzibar book got a lot of things right. Never heard of it. Of course science fiction also got a lot of things wrong too, like life on Venus and Mars.
Very imaginative writers.
I am partial to Jules Verne and H.G. Wells.
Yeah that's surprising since I've never read it Pat. Science fiction is still fiction of course.
Jules Verne's work is incredible even by today's standards.
That's why I don't play chess.
