Book excerpt: Fresh out of school, Jax de Loite, an ambitious Australian First Nations girl, secures a junior researcher position at NewsLine, a leading national current affairs TV program. Feeling her talents are underutilized in research, she yearns for more challenging work. Des Carter, the Executive Producer of NewsLine and a long-time friend of her journalist father, recognizes her potential and decides to give her a chance. He assigns her to 'The Next Files' – a neglected archive brimming with public submissions of supernatural events and inexplicable phenomena. These files, humorously named in a nod to the 90s cult TV series 'The X-Files', are a collection of enigmas no one else wants to tackle, and they now land in Jax's lap. In her first case, Jax is tasked with interviewing a Feng Shui master brought to Sydney to dispel a ghost believed to haunt the Eight Dragons Restaurant. Unfamiliar with Chinese culture, she seeks the assistance of Doc Lee, a half Filipino, half Chinese Australian-raised science student who is skeptical about the existence of ghosts. Together, they embark on a journey into the supernatural. The plot thickens in the second story, 'Min Min'. Jax and Doc are sent to investigate a headline in a western Queensland newspaper: "US Scientist Abducted by Min Min Lights." While Jax leans towards theories of alien abduction, Doc searches for a scientific explanation. Their quest leads them to Pine Gap near Alice Springs, where Jax ventures into the mystical realm of the Dreamtime, seeking truths that transcend the known world.

It is indispensable to business analysts, strategists and organisations who need to stay ahead of the game as well as providing rich and fascinating material for dinner party conversations. Will machines become more intelligent than humans, and even be able to "read" our minds? Will food in our fridge speak to each other using radio waves, then come up with options for tonight's menu? Is there a looming environmental crisis where Planet Earth is doomed? Would you like a pill that improves your memory? Or a moistened tissue that could erase a bad day? Would you feel safer if your front door could tell you whether the person knocking is not a stranger? These are just some of the provocative forecasts about how the world might change in the next half century which Richard Watson explores in Future Files.

A patient with OCD whose loved ones really did suffer every time he missed a ritual. A choir boy who claimed he was being molested -- not by a priest -- but by God Himself. A patient with PTSD who gave me nightmares. A husband and wife who accused each other of abuse, and only one of them was telling the truth. A woman who kept her ex locked up as a sex slave. A pedo-ring conspiracy theorist who was actually onto something. And how could I ever forget, Patient #220. The problem is, my patients have a habit of dying. Sometimes I wonder if I'm the common denominator. Or maybe that's just the cost of taking on exceptionally broken clients. Either way, I'll never stop trying to help."--Page 4 of cover.
