Praise for Where Is My Flying Car?

“One of the best and most interesting books on technology.” —Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution

“There are many writers with optimistic visions of the future. However, the goals I most often hear are all the negation of negatives: cure cancer, eliminate poverty, stop climate change. . . . This is good, but it is not enough. [These techno-optimists] are content with bringing the whole world up to the current best standard of living, but not increasing it. In this context, I found Where Is My Flying Car? refreshing. Hall unabashedly calls for unlimited progress in every dimension.” —Jason Crawford, Roots of Progress

"Whether there is 'tech stagnation' or a revolution about to swarm the skies, Where Is My Flying Car? offers piercing questions and answers about what it might take to make the dream come true." —David Brin, astrophysicist and author of Existence and The Postman

"This book is an inspirational roadmap to an amazing future that can be ours if we will only reach for it. Hall’s bold new perspective on technological progress is a must-read for anyone who claims to be a futurist." —Robert Freitas, nanotechnology scientist and author of Nanomedicine

"America's 'golden quarter century' of technological and economic progress ended 50 years ago. Instead of flying cars, we got Facebook. J. Storrs Hall brilliantly explains the reasons for this Great Stagnation, and what to do to bring about another golden era of growth and prosperity." —Glenn Harlan Reynolds, Beauchamp Brogan Distinguished Professor of Law, University of Tennessee

From Where Is My Flying Car?

Nanotechnology, civil engineering, innovation, Human progress, Sustainable living, Computer science


"The key to [our] future will be our visions: whether we can imagine, want, and try hard enough to achieve great things—things worthy of the capabilities of a people with intelligent robots, complete control of the structure of matter, and the limitless power of the atom. Our muscle awaits, if only we can find our muse."

"We need to understand how to harness our enormous creative energies for improvement instead of virtue-signaling. We need to understand how to live beyond Earth’s fragile soap bubble of a biosphere. We need to begin to appreciate how much more there is to even our small solar system."

Nanotechnology, civil engineering, innovation, Human progress, Sustainable living, Computer science


"We need hopers and dreamers; we need visionaries who can see a better future worth striving for. We need great, important things to do with the staggeringly huge capabilities that lie within our grasp. Science fiction must get back down into the gutter and start looking back up at the stars."

Perhaps the most important ingredient is "ideas." Stripe Press highlights ideas that we think can be broadly useful. Some books contain entirely new material, some are collections of existing work reimagined, and others are republications of previous works that have remained relevant over time or have renewed relevance today.
