What the Future Looks Like : Scientists Predict the Next Great Discoveries and Reveal How Today's Breakthroughs Are Already...

Every day, scientists conduct pioneering experiments with the potential to transform how we live. Yet it isn't every day you hear from the scientists themselves! Now, award-winning author Jim Al-Khalili and his team of top-notch experts explain how today's earthshaking discoveries will shape our world tomorrow- and beyond.
