Jeremy Clift is a science fiction author and former journalist. A fan of Adrian Tchaikovsky, Mary Robinette Kowal, Cixin Liu, and Andy Weir, he is keenly interested in how space exploration will change humanity over the next 200 years. His first work of fiction, “Born in Space” is part of his Sci-Fi Galaxy series of novels built around the growth of orbiting space habitats and the exploitation of asteroids. “Born in Space” examines what life might be like for the first children born off Earth. “How would they feel? Would they have a terrible craving to return “home”? Or are they really an extraterrestrial, a space being? Still a humanoid but having none of the experiences of the Earth.” Clift says that solving how babies get born in reduced or zero gravity is one of the key issues for humanity if we want to populate space habitats and other planets. Most people will not want to emigrate to Mars. But maybe robots will. And by then, they will probably be far more intelligent than humans. “Maybe what will be “born” is some sort of hybrid that mixes the emotions of humans with the resilience and sturdiness of artificial beings.” A former non-fiction Publisher at an international organization, he is a communications consultant and writing coach who has also worked in magazines and as an international news correspondent for Reuters. A graduate of the London School of Economics and George Washington University, he has lived in a variety of capitals and cities around the world, including Beijing, Bombay, Cairo, New Delhi, Jakarta, London, Manila, Paris, and Washington DC. He has published profiles and interviews with several leading economists, including Nobel Prize winners Vernon Smith and Daniel Kahneman, as well as Olivier Blanchard, Avinash Dixit, Allan Meltzer, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Mario Monti, Lucrezia Reichlin, and Hernando de Soto. He has also edited collections of work on Health and Development and Financial Globalization, as well as books on VAT, Big Government, Japan, Risk and Recessions.
