	How advances in technology may reshape humanity an illustrated speculative timeline of future technology and social ...
		The timeline offers a general outline of our possible future history, and is somewhat conservative and circumscribed in what it offers the reader.
		The timeline is meant to be the 'harder' (or more factual/credible) of the two works, in terms of science and predictions.
		Perspectives helps illustrate some of the possibilities implied by the timeline, as well as how certain select personalities of various periods might perceive (and exploit or respond to) their circumstances.

	A Brief History of Computing - Complete Timeline
		Computers built between 1959 and 1964 are often regarded as 'Second Generation' computers, based on transistors and printed circuits - resulting in much smaller computers.
		Computers built between 1964 and 1972 are often regarded as 'Third Generation' computers, they are based on the first integrated circuits - creating even smaller machines.
		Computers built after 1972 are often called 'fourth generation' computers, based on LSI (Large Scale Integration) of circuits (such as microprocessors) - typically 500 or more components on a chip.

	History of computing - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		The history of computing is longer than the history of computing hardware and modern computing technology and includes the history of methods intended for pen and paper or for chalk and slate, with or without the aid of tables.
		During this period, the representation of a calculation on paper actually allowed calculation of mathematical expressions, and the tabulation of mathematical functions such as the square root and the common logarithm (for use in multiplication and division) and the trigonometric functions.
		By the time of Isaac Newton's researches, paper or vellum was an important computing resource, and even in our present time, researchers like Enrico Fermi would cover random scraps of paper with calculation, to satisfy their innate curiosity about an equation.
