Science fiction still seems to be about holograms; however, scientists say it will soon become irreplaceable in fields like medicine and astronomy. Holography is a technique for capturing an object's details and restoring its image on a three-dimensional surface by not only measuring the amplitude of light but also its duration. Digital holography's comprehensive growth has recently begun with the introduction of high-quality digital cameras but several remarkable results have already been achie

To you and me the disrupters are as mad as the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. And you could be led to believe we all live in Wonderland. Not true. Only some of them are. Then there are the ones that large smart investors back.

The “New Economy” is a term economists started using in the 1990s to describe new, high-tech, high-gro
