In a time of revolutionary new developments technology, travel comes to illustrate a great example on how innovation and technology not only transformed the way we travel, but how we think too.
"Traditional beliefs, professional attitudes, customary roles, inherited symbols, sectional and national interests--these make it extraordinarily difficulty for all but the most original of minds to break away from patterns of thought and go voyaging on the unknown seas of the future. In consequence it is a rare forecast that makes any allowance for the essential waywardness of human affairs and does not insist on a strict, continuity between self-evident present and the evidential future."
I. F. Clarke
