History of Historical Prediction

There is very little written about attempts to predict the future of humankind.  Much of past attempts that have failed can be found in Peter Schnaars book, "Megamistakes: Forecasting and the Myth of Rapid Technological Change, 1989.'  To a large extent Schnaars wrote this in response to Naisbitt's book "Megatrends: Ten New Directions Transforming Our Lives, 1988."  A summary of these two books along with what has happened since would be valuable reading for persons helping with the work here.
