Both general politics and social relations were depending on the thoughts of development, beneficial change , confidence in the rational , enlightenment , advancement , and the potential to explain any activity from a analytical point of view . Notwithstanding , starting from the second half of the 60’s, the world has begun to deteriorate and currently , 40 years after , we dwell in a changed type of reality .
We without any problems mark all innovations which are brought to us by new technology, but we barely comprehend the fact that there are some concepts standing behind those inventions . The core of the expected change was initially noticed by those people, who as a rule of thumb lived anteceding their time – philosophers and authors. Among the numerous authors whose books have served for amusement , there have been several of them who have given the planet a new picture of the future . They have better than others other authors created and formulated authentic ideas and have ultimately done a brand new intelligent and emotional analysis of the future. They have found challenges in the mundane of our lives and have shed light onto a array of problems, which were existing without being spotted . They have assisted us to think of the new problems , and have given us new hope .
These were the authors who have shaped the vision of the entire generation, which has taken the blow of dramatic change; change, which was seen as disarray at the dawn of the 21 first century.
