After 30 years of incredible development, China represents today one of the main sources of futuristic scenarios and Science Fiction storytelling. That's why this selection of short stories (some of which have won the prestigious Galaxy Award) become particularly useful to understand where such development might lead in the near future: from the research of immortality to the digital conservation of ancient temples, passing from medical breakthroughs, sensorial augmentations, innovative interfaces and dramatic ways to achieve richness, Chinese Science Fiction authors already live in a "preview" of tomorrow's world. We should really listen to what they have to say.

经过30年不可思议的发展,中国如今是未来场景和科幻故事主要的灵感来源之一。这就是为什么这本短篇集(其中一些作品获得了享负盛名的银河奖)能够极其有效地帮助我们理解在不远的未来这种发展将会走向何处:从对长生不老的研究到对古老庙宇的数字化保护,从医学的突破、感官的增强、创新性的交互方式到戏剧性的暴富手段,中国科幻作者们已经生活在明日世界的"预演"之中。我们真的该好好读一读他们的故事。
