Interview by Richard Marshall. 3:AM: In your Semina novel One Break A Thousand Blows you describe Stewart Home as being ‘a teddy bear.’ How was it working with him on the production of the book?

While I’m on the subject of foundational concepts in the relationship between science and engineering , here’s the outline of a methodology for applying current science to assess lower bounds on the capabilities of a select subset of future technologies.
