In addition to some short books on energy aimed at a young audience, he has just published a work of great quality on future prospects in the sciences and technologies, entitled <em>Bref r\u00e9cit du futur. Prospective 2050, science et soci\u00e9t\u00e9<\/em> [Brief Narrative of the Future. Foresight 2050, Science and Society] (Paris: Albin Michel, 2012).\n\nMichel Andr\u00e9 has read the book for <em>Futuribles<\/em> and presents it for us here in broad outline. He particularly stresses Papon\u2019s redoubtable ability to sum up the current state of knowledge and technology in a language that is accessible; to show what \u201cbreakthrough fronts\u201d are identifiable today in many fields (physics, medicine, imagining etc.) and what we are able to deduce from them about possible scientific and technological developments over the next few decades; and, lastly, to bring out the way society carries forward \u2013or retards\u2013 scientific research and its translation into innovation. A brilliant piece of work and a magisterial lesson in foresight studies.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regular readers of Futuribles are very familiar with Pierre Papon, a member of the editorial board and a regular contributor to the journal on scientific questions in the broad sense of the term. 2012 has been a productive year for Papon so far as publications are concerned.
