in 1984 i co-authored 2025 report with my father norman macrae, the economist sub-editor who earned the japan emperor's order of rising sun for trying to unite the goals of the two thirds of people who are asian with the 10% in the west who first used engines. our book explored timelines on the hypothesis that the 40 years to 2025 would define human futures. as diaspora scots, it can be regarded as the final episode in 27 decades of machine and human exploration started up in 1760s at glasgow u by adam smith and james watt.
