Description
In his book “Future Reflections,” author Dr. Hassan Al-Sharif presents a scientific approach to the future of technology and its impact on humans in the long term. From the beginnings of the universe and the Milky Way to the future human-machine hybrid, he leads his readers to explore various spaces of knowledge exploration, from the beginnings of the universe and the Milky Way to the future human-machine hybrid; the side effects of technology and its waste, the environmental footprint, and other issues. Questioning everything is both an art and a science, and through Future Reflections, Hassan Al-Sharif summarizes millions of years of the universe's lifespan and has a conversation with the seventh Arab generation that has not yet been born. “In the year 2020, the author hastens to make sure that Arab literature and its libraries will not miss the moment of the ”single point“ coming with the exponential technological development called the Fourth Industrial Revolution in conjunction with the logical causality of climate change resulting from the dangerous levels of global warming and the COVID-19 earthquake that shook the world.In this book, the author makes his reader question the purpose of technology, a humanized Earth, and the evolutionary development of the universe - physical, chemical, and biological - for millions of years to a state of equilibrium in the last two hundred thousand years. The author's experience makes his observations, and even more so his questions, extremely relevant. This book is one of the few books in the Arabic library on the various challenges facing human civilization and the prevailing futuristic thinking about them in the world, as well as some of the prevailing arguments about possible solutions, as well as scenarios of other possibilities. Much of what is presented in this book is taken from lengthy discussions in the futures literature in developed countries, especially those mentioned in the book's references, and the author has absorbed their meanings, developed them, reformulated them, and added to them, in a way that suits the Arab reader and the context of Arab societal culture.
