OUT NOW: the new book from the bestselling authors and hosts of the wildy popular 'The Skeptics Guide to the Universe'
__________
Our predictions of the future are a wild fantasy, inextricably linked to our present hopes and fears, biases and ignorance. Whether they be the outlandish leaps predicted in the 1920s, like multi-purpose utility belts with climate control capabilities and planes the size of luxury cruise ships, or the forecasts of the '60s, which didn't anticipate the sexual revolution or women's liberation, the path to the present is littered with failed predictions and incorrect estimations.
The best we can do is try to absorb from futurism's checkered past, perhaps learning to do a little better.
In The Skeptics' Guide To The Future, Steven Novella and his co-authors build upon the work of futurists of the past by examining what they got right, what they got wrong, and how they came to those conclusions. By exploring the pitfalls of each era, they give their own speculations about the distant future, transformed by unbelievable technology ranging from genetic manipulation to artificial intelligence and quantum computing. Applying their trademark skepticism, they carefully extrapolate upon each scientific development, leaving no stone unturned as they lay out a vision for the future of tomorrow.

Solid Everyday Shirt
Color: 312 Red, Size: X-Large
Pretty happy with this one. Fits true to size and looks good on. The cotton is soft and comfortable, feels decent for the price. Stripes look nice and haven't faded after a few washes so far. Not the thickest material out there but it works fine for casual wear. Good shirt to throw on when you want to look put together without trying too hard. Would consider buying in another color.

Perfectly fitted shorts with great stretch and comfort for the price
Color: 311 White, Size: Large, Color: 311 White, Size: Large
These shorts quickly became a favorite. The fit is spot on — snug in the right places without being restrictive, which gives them a really flattering look. The material feels high quality for the price, and there’s enough stretch built in to make them extremely comfortable for everyday wear.
What stands out most is the value. For the cost, the combination of fit, comfort, and durability is hard to beat. They move easily with you, whether you’re lounging, walking, or being active, and they don’t lose their shape after wear.
Overall, these shorts hit the sweet spot between style, comfort, and affordability. If you want something that looks fitted, feels good, and won’t break the bank, this is an excellent choice.

Very nice shirt, runs a little big depending on how you like it to fit
Color: 311 Black, Size: Medium
We got it specifically for the black and white stripes. My husband typically wears a medium. We buy the WYR shirts for him since they have a tapered, flattering fit. I initially ordered the medium but it was too big and baggy especially in the waist. We ended up getting the small and it fits perfect. I really like the hand of the fabric.

Seems great so far - 3 washes and nothing but good things to say
Color: 311 White, Size: Large
Shirt looks great colors wise and it's lasted perfectly so far in limited washing (cold water + dryer). There's a bit of stretch above and beyond what cotton normally does (from the nylon or lycra I believe) but you can't tell unless you're putting the shirt on.
As for fit - fits me perfectly. I tend to be more of a large in the shoulders and a medium at the waist, but this shirt is great for me. Def more of a fitted look but NOT jersey shore douchey type fitted.
EDIT - +1 year and shirt is still going strong. No rips tears, etc. I've washed cold and warm, tumble dry medium

Comfortable, and surprisingly good quality
Color: 31260 Green, Size: Large
Super comfortable and stretchy, worked great for my chicken little costume. I’ve washed it about 5 or 6 times now and it hasn’t shrunk or gotten pilly or anything.
