Read some of John Brunner’s work. Dystopian and prophetic also.
Although he was wrong on the overpopulation theme, he was spot on in some other areas. Probably the most so was “The Shockwave Rider” on computer viruses and electronic surveilance of the people.

********************************
Haven’t read “Shockwave Rider.” Found an old paperback copy at a yard sale last week. Read “Stand On Zanzibar” when it came out. Was sort of a member of the counterculture at the time and it seemed to fit the zeitgeist.I still have the paperback copy with the Hugo Winner blurb on it. Don’t know how it would stand up today.
