My all time favorite series is Red Mars, Green Mars, and Blue Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson. Here is a map of Mars from the Unofficial web site tribute site:
Robinson does an excellent job of showing us the future from 2040 until 2240. Through the three books we see space elevators, life extension, robotics and a glimpse of real martians and what they would probably look like. If there is any book you would like to sit down with, this should be at the top of the list. Robinson has the science down as well as excellent writing skills.

A map of Pangaea complete with names of rivers, mountains , cities , etc. Mine does'nt have that. Where'd you find yours ???
Anyone heard of Hong Kong well-known science fiction writer -'' Ni Kuang'' , his science fiction,"Branch" and "magic", very very good. I wonder they have English version.
I like Bradbury's Martian Chronicles. I like his Fahrenheit 451 even better.
To be honest I think the most accurate or at least something of science fiction that comes close to a possible truth for our world and planet's future is the movie "Soylent Green".
Anything by Hal Clemet. All his books were extrapolations of hard science. What would it be like to live on a 600g world? Read "Mission of Gravity".
