- Those of you who read the book know we have a whole section on subjects we dropped for various reasons. What we didn't say is that we also had to cut a whole finished chapter due to space constraints.
- We're just now launching a $12 paperback edition, and we thought as part of that we'd share the lost chapter. It's about advanced concepts in nuclear reactor design, and it's freely available to anyone just click this comic to check it out.

- If you haven't read the book, soonish is about medium-term future technologies, why they may or may not happen, why they might be amazing, and why they might be dangerous.
