Red Mars(1st book) was great. In fact the psychologist talks about at least 2 different 2-axis grids that relate psychological state/emotion that I have plans on using for a chat bot.
I stopped mid way through the second book Green(?Blue?) Mars. I think it had to do with the book following a character(s) whose story didn't interest me.
The third book I can't comment on being that I haven't read it.
Lots of interesting topics/ideas:
Mars original environment preservation VS. immigration (Mar's natural habitat VS. development/progress/technology)
Longevity treatments for population of: under populated Mars VS. overpopulated Earth
Various habitats: tents, lava tunnels, asteroid/moon, ice
Technologies: automations, ultra-light flight vehicle, rock cars, space elevator
That being said I think I might try to start over and read the whole trilogy.
