SSI President Gary C Hudson shows the evolution of reading… as predicted in the book 2081
We broke the news yesterday for SSI Associates to get their jump start and now it’s open for everyone:
For a limited time The Space Studies Institute is giving away the Kindle editions of Gerard K. O’Neill’s 2081 and The High Frontier for free!
2081, an amazing look at the future rising around us, and The High Frontier, the cornerstone book of the NewSpace generation, are both regularly priced at $6.99 USD but right now they are online around the planet for free download from the Amazon.com websites and Kindle stores.
For details on 2081, just jump down to the previous SSI Blog post and as for The High Frontier, well, if you haven’t heard of it then it’s time you laid the right foundation in your Space education.
Gerard K. O’Neill’s The High Frontier is a landmark book. A stunning, readable treatise.
Space is the place where there are no limits and where benefits to ALL of Humanity – everywhere – are free for the using with no need to harm anyone.
Sound far fetched? Sound naively Utopian and absolutely unachievable? Until a person actually reads The High Frontier for themselves, they should be careful about jumping to conclusions.
In The High Frontier, Princeton Nuclear Physicist Gerard K. O’Neill asks the famous question:
“Is a planetary surface, any planetary surface,
really the best place for an expanding technological civilization?”
And then he systematically looks at what it means for a civilization to expand, what such a civilization truly needs for real positive growth, and finds that all of those requirements and more are in no way out of reach.
Professor O’Neill makes this book of real science and real technology readable by most everyone by using fascinating “Letters From Space” followed by clear explanations of the hows and whys. O’Neill was a world-renowned scientist but he had the gift to make even the most technical information completely understandable.
If you’ve never personally read 2081 and The High Frontier, you are in for a truly amazing experience. If you haven’t read them in a while then now is a great time to refresh your memories!
