About the book: year / The futurological essay "Generator of Desires" was written between 1986 and 1988. If we try to characterize the genre of this work in a few words, we can say that it is a science fiction novel in which there are no characters or plot. More precisely, its protagonists are scientific, technical and philosophical ideas, and the place of the plot is occupied by the logical development of ideas. However, there is nothing particularly fantastic in this book - I am sure that most of the ideas presented in it will sooner or later be realized in reality, and in this sense this work can be considered futurological.
