by Frederick Bradnum
with Julian Glover, John Rowe and Elizabeth Proud

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, urban guerrilla, member of the Resistance. Once upon a time it seemed as simple as that to two men, when on opposing sides. Then the tide turned, one was hunted and went missing; the other married a girl he met when he was the hunted, and settled to a fairly conventional life. Only the past arrived on his doorstep to take him hostage, in the manner Eskimos once had when near to death.

When the laser was invented no one could think what to do with it - except SF writers. Now, 20 years on, the laser is a highly practical device for many industrial purposes - even for opening oyster shells! But over the next ten years the laser could radically change all our lives through its ability to transmit, cheaply, huge amounts of information. Joanna Hickson looks at the potential of the laser.
