Ebook: The day it finally happens: alien contact, dinosaur parks, immortal humans -- and other possible phenomena

"Scenarios about days that could come to pass in the future.";Pearl speculates on many of the "could it really happen?" scenarios we've all talked about. He assigns each event a probability rating, and takes us through how it would unfold. The final failure of antibiotics, a complete ban on guns in the US, and even the arrival of aliens-- Pearl provides a clear picture of how the world would look, feel, and even smell in each of these instances. He makes science accessible while offering practical answers to some of our most worrisome questions. -- adapted from jacket
