Both those books are.....mostly non-fiction. Wilson is a kid who has a Ph.D. from Carnegie-Mellon for data mining. In his spare time, he did some research about the difference between reality (Asimo) and fiction (T1000, not the Toyota). He writes very tongue in cheek while providing some interesting facts. "Jetpack" is about why we don't have all those cool gadgets we were promised as lads.
For myself, I look at paper books these days like a rotary phone or a dial-up connexion. There's a raft of views on this, but I'll be happy if I can find a new use for my bookshelves.
