The Micro-Age
According to predictions in the "Living Planet Report," a biannual report issued by the London Zoological Society and the World Wildlife Foundation, if humans continue their development of the land and sea at the current rate, then by the year 2030 in order to produce enough food, raw materials, and water resources, as well as absorbing the carbon dioxide produced by human activities, we will need two planets to survive.

What will save us, enter Liu Cixin's The Micro-Age and take a look at what kind of program China's top sci-fi author has proposed to save the destiny of humankind!

Review

Liu Cixin's writing will remind SF fans of the genre's golden age, with its positive focus on scientific development, combined with a consistently constructive vision of China's future role as a global superpower. It's characteristic of an SF genre which has been embraced by Chinese culture because it is seen as representing the values of technological innovation and creativity so highly prized in a country developing more quickly than any other in the world today.
