Found this book while looking on the web, and i thought I would post it since to be honest, its description seems sort of condescending toward sci-fi and such, and i wanted to post it so I wouldn't dwell on it all night into a fury.

Waste of $25 for me. I don't plan on being here in the 22nd century.
