I'm writing a book about the 'edge of the thinkable', how it developed over the years, centuries and millenia, and I'm sure you'll be interested in this. (Whenever I browse through HN, I think 'oh, I didn't think THAT was possible..'.
So, more soon, but I'd love it if you'd sign up for that (very, very occassional) status update newsletter. I'm sure it will include beta versions of the book, too!
A long time ago I shopped around a non-fiction book roughly titled "The Future of the The Future of Work" that looked at what people talked about / wrote about / researched as "The Future of Work" and how that could help us shape our thinkinkg of what the future of work would actually look like. Very niche and naval gaze-y, but really entertaining.
Good luck with the writing!
