The now-defunct but once highly popular magazine, "Pelican," used to publish stories from authors who wished to communicate scientific or philosophical concepts through entertaining tales with unexpected endings. Each story would feature drama and tension, concealing a treasure trove of fascinating knowledge and ideas.
In the first story, it is told about an unexpected way of predicting the future. In the second story, we will learn what the next stage of human evolution will look like. The following story called "Linguist," describes what will happen when a single language reigns on the planet. What needs to be done for all of humanity to become a single unified organism? We will learn about this from the story "The New Life." Is it possible to come up with a better form of governance than those practiced today? And what will all of this lead to? Read "The Certainty of Improbability". How does the patent attorney protect against unwanted inventions? You will find out from the story 'Patent Attorney'." The problem of self-awareness occupies a mysterious extraterrestrial civilization, and they come to Earth to figure out if Earthlings have self-awareness. This is described in "The Problem of Self-Awareness." Archaeological excavations are full of surprises, especially when manuscripts in an invented language are discovered. This is discussed in the upcoming story, "The Last Indian from the Tribe OLI".
