George Gilder has written several future looking books:

Microcosm
Telecosm
The Death of Television
The meaning of the Microcosm

I highly recommend them for anyone investing in tech stocks.

Microcosm , written in 1989, talks about the impact of Silicon Chips.

If for example, back then, you could have forseen the impact of Moore's law (microprocessor power doubles every 18 month or so), you could have forecast the PC of today, and perhaps made a killing in MSFT, DELL, etc simply by seeing the mega trends.

Telecosm talks about fiber and it's impact for the NEXT 20 years.

There is a thread for George:
