If the twentieth century was the American Century, who will the next one
belong to... and what will become of the nation's capital? Will Washington
D.C. be drowned in the rising tides and its glory days forgotten, or will its
residents rise to the challenge and remake the world in its image? In these
stories you'll find as many questions as answers, but if assembled authors
agree on anything, it's that we are destined to live in interesting times
and more than that... ones that we will have a hand in creating. Ask not what
the future can do for you... with stories by Cory Doctorow, James Alan Gardner,
Joe Haldeman, Sean McMullen, Kim Stanley Robinson, Allen M. Steele, and many
more.
