Rating: Summary: Foresight Review: I read this book when i was still in High School a number of years ago, but still the distinctness of the book lingers on in my memory. I enjoyed Sci-Fi before i read this book, and after? Well writing reviews and looking every where for Ben Bova. I enjoyed the book because it focused not only on what could be, what what in actual fact is. The Vanguard coorporation if my memory serves, reflects metaphorically with the way our world is now. It moved me from being being "a simple fish in the waters of life" to being aware of my environment, being aware that there is more than what meets the eye. The technology described in the book was, to me, fantastic, so fantastic that it tantalised the senses and made me want to go out and study science and make that technology possible. I have in my life only read three Ben Bova book, not by any chance by choice, but simply because where i am they are hard to find. Orion, another throughly enjoyable book, shares the same mystisism with Voyager 11, and also displays our Theological dispositions. Voyager 11, displayed the Alien that is within our very midst and the human potential that has only just begun to be tapped. Definitely one of the best books i have ever read. I question and because i cannot find the answer, i search. Thanks Ben..
