amazingly accurate. Hard to believe anyone could’ve gotten so much so right with only small details missing a little, not feasible or existing in some way, though just to humble him a bit please keep in mind he did predict we’d have gorilla butlers farmed and trained to replace domesticated labor in the home. So even the best of us don’t get it all right and in some cases very wrong.

I enjoyed this book about him and Stanley Kubrick.

Space Odyssey: Stanley Kubrick, Arthur C. Clarke, and the Making of a Masterpiece by Michael Benson

"Glide Path" which is a somewhat fictionalised personal account of his wartime experiences working on ground controlled descent & landing is entertaining.

He did make several quite interesting predictions, but as you note some preposterous ones as well.
