The Problem of Increasing Human Energy
Nikola Tesla
    This article first appeared in the June, 1900 issue of The Century Magazine.  It contains a comprehensive description of Tesla's vision regarding the future of human technology. Included is an extensive review, in his own words, of the results that were obtained up to and including the time spent working at the Experimental Station in Colorado.  As a significant part of the Tesla canon, this piece is highly recommended.

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Thomas S. Kuhn
    Written by the man who coined the term "paradigm shift" this book describes the process and the end result.  In essence paradigm shift is a relatively abrupt, fundamental change in the way that a specific conceptual world view is defined.  The revisions tend to supplant earlier views that have served the needs of workers in specific fields, but have eventually proven to be inadequate.  The replacement of Ptolemy's geocentric system by the heliocentric system of Copernicus and the discovery of oxygen are two historical examples used to shed light on the nature of its workings.
