    About this ebook

     

    This book presents a totally new concept: science-fiction micro-fiction. These pieces may be short, but these 40 stories will excite you, challenge you, and even threaten your current way of thinking as they look into the future of humanity and human lives, as well as possible future scenarios and their advantages/disadvantages. Enter this space and let your imagination run wild. For this fourth edition, the author attempts to answer the fundamental questions of cosmology: the nature of matter, the nature of space and its the expansion. Technical words have been kept to a minimum, but essential terms are explained in short notes after each story to aid the general reader. The future is here - enjoy it!

    Pervaiz Salik

    I have an honours degree in Mathematics from the Open University and taught in Scotland before gaining an M.A. in English Literature. I taught English to O Level International GCSE Cambridge students for 14 years in Pakistan and was Head of Department there. My Haiku on Cultural Diversity is published in UNESCO’S Cultural Report 2000. My story of Big Samson The Big Lion (in a much shorter form) was accepted for publication by Oxford University Press, but never published for technical reasons. Currently, I have published about 12 e-books on the teaching of English, novels, short stories and poetry. My Spelling book was ranked number 1 in its category on Amazon. My interests include chess, badminton, bridge and astronomy. (Pervaiz Salik)

      Us Animals: Writing the Natural World Back into the Human
