Olaf Stapledon (1886 - 1950) - professor of psychology, philosophy and industrial history at the University of Liverpool, a writer whose work made an indelible impression on the most popular masters of the XX century. Stanislav Lem, Arthur Clark, Brian Oldiss repeatedly spoke about Stapledon’s novels with great warmth, considering him largely his teacher.
In 1930, Stapledon writes his debut novel "Last and the first people: the story of a close and distant future", which really presents the most large -scale history of the future, covering the two -million -year evolution of the mind on Earth and in the solar system.
The history of the origin and development of mankind, the variety of forms of living and intelligent matter, countless wars and catastrophes that form all new types of development, the exit of the future to Mars, Venus, Neptune and further outside the studied Universe ... A premonition of something important , a great, absolute, eternal search and eternal struggle with inertness - this book was so charged with ideas that the subsequent generations of science fiction writers got an inexhaustible storehouse of inspiration
