Leading futurist and OneShared.World founder Jamie Metzl explores how genome sequencing, gene editing, artificial intelligence, and other technologies are not only changing our lives, but catalyzing each other in radical and accelerating ways. These technologies have the potential to improve our health, feed billions of people, supercharge our economies, and store essential information for millions of years, but can also—if we are not careful—do immeasurable harm.

What’s coming next for today’s workforce, and the companies behind them? For those eager and willing to adapt, the possibilities are nearly endless, says author Gerard Szatvanyi. Recent advances in technology have led to new trends, and this global transformation holds tremendous potential. Nearly every industry will be impacted, and organizations that set the right vision could benefit from breaking into new markets and creating specialized niches.

Unser Planet ist begrenzt, aber wir müssen uns weiterentwickeln, um die Herausforderungen der Zukunft zu meistern. Anders Levermann, Leiter der Komplexitätsforschung am Potsdamer Klimainstitut, schlägt einen Weg vor, der dieses Dilemma auflöst und ganz nebenbei die Ungleichheitsexplosion in unserer Gesellschaft zähmt. Wir befinden uns am Ende des Zeitalters der Expansion – und wir brauchen eine Idee für den nächsten großen Schritt. Die Begrenztheit unserer Erde kollidiert mit der Notwendigkeit rasanter gesellschaftlicher Entwicklung.

Wir können mehr, als wir glauben, wenn wir verstehen, wie wir denken. Unsere Welt befindet sich in einem großen Umbruchprozess. Wir müssen die Energiewende schaffen, den Klimawandel aufhalten, unsere Wirtschaft und Verwaltung digitalisieren – und gleichzeitig unsere Demokratie gegen Fake News und digitale Meinungsmanipulation verteidigen. An guten Ideen und konkreten Vorschlägen, was zu tun ist, mangelt es nicht. Auch nicht an Vorstellungen, wie eine lebenswerte Zukunft aussehen sollte. Dennoch kommen wir nicht in die Gänge.

Las valiosas reflexiones del político más querido del mundo y del más importante pensador contemporáneo, reunidos por primera vez en Uruguay para llamar a la acción.

Chris Impey conducts listeners across the vast, fast-developing field of astrobiology, surveying the dizzying advances carrying us ever closer to the discovery of life beyond Earth—and the prospect of humans living on another planet. With a view spanning astronomy, planetary science, geology, chemistry, and biology, Impey provides a state-of-the-art account of what's behind this accelerating progress, what's next, and what it might mean for humanity's future.

Wie kann es sein, dass das vermeintlich höchstentwickelte Wesen auf diesem Planeten seinen Lebensraum selbst zerstört? Haben wir unser Schicksal wirklich selbst in der Hand oder agieren wir nicht – wie jede andere Tierart auch – überwiegend instinktgesteuert? Augenscheinlich ja: Unfähig zu vorausschauendem, langfristigem Denken, rein an unmittelbarer Bedürfnisbefriedigung interessiert, plündert die Menschheit die Ressourcen des Planeten hemmungslos aus und steuert sehenden Auges in den eigenen Untergang. Peter Wohlleben gewährt erstmals Einblicke in die wahre Natur des Menschen.

The Human Injury describes the immensity of evolutionary influence upon modern behavior. Base human compulsions activate instantly. They crowd out the thinking mind. They fight enemies that no longer exist. These ancient compulsions have reinvented. They're making the rules. The gifts of nature that once kept our ancestors alive now combine to block human arrival to sustainability.

Dieses Buch ist der Aufruf zu einer neuen Klarheit des Denkens. Denn die Probleme von morgen können wir nicht mit der Denkweise und Philosophie von gestern bekämpfen. Wenn die wichtigsten politischen und philosophischen Errungenschaften der Aufklärung - Demokratie, Menschenrechte, evidenzbasiertes Denken - überleben sollen, müssen wir eine Lebensweise und ein Verständnis der Welt entwickeln, die dem menschlichen Wohlergehen verpflichtet sind und von planetarischer Gerechtigkeit getragen werden.

Deutschlands bekannteste Zukunftsforscherin nimmt Ängste und schärft den Blick nach vorn. "Der Mensch ist das Wesen, das die Fähigkeit hat, sich die Zukunft so detailliert vorzustellen, dass es sie erschaffen kann", schreibt Florence Gaub, und das ist in diesen Monaten eine Nachricht voll Hoffnung. Denn selten war die Zukunft mit so vielen und großen Unsicherheiten behaftet wie heute: Krieg, Klima, Inflation.

In this uncompromising essay, Jonathan Crary presents the obvious but unsayable reality: our "digital age" is synonymous with the disastrous terminal stage of global capitalism and its financialization of social existence, mass impoverishment, ecocide, and military terror. Scorched Earth surveys the wrecking of a living world by the internet complex and its devastation of communities and their capacities for mutual support.

Self-driving electric cars! Trips to the Moon and Mars! A world where fossil fuels are no longer needed! An age where humanoid robots will do the dangerous, boring jobs! Welcome to the world that Elon Musk is creating.

Our ability to think about the future is one of the most powerful tools at our disposal. In The Invention of Tomorrow, cognitive scientists Thomas Suddendorf, Jonathan Redshaw, and Adam Bulley argue that its emergence transformed humans from unremarkable primates to creatures that hold the destiny of the planet in their hands. Drawing on their own cutting-edge research, the authors break down the science of foresight, showing us where it comes from, how it works, and how it made our world.

For years, consumers have been promised a simple, carefree digital future. We could live, work, learn, and play from the comforts of our homes, and have whatever we desire brought to our door with the flick of a finger. Instant communication would bring us together. Technological convenience would give us more time to focus on what really mattered. When the pandemic hit, that future transformed into the present, almost overnight. And the reviews aren't great.

Multi-award-winning scientific futurist Dr. Catherine Ball presents insights into how technology and science are providing answers to many of the challenges the world is facing today—food shortages, war and conflict, the decline in local manufacturing, health and ageing, and global warming—and asks why we are not embracing these technologies more widely. Dr. Catherine opens our eyes to the amazing, wide world of technological advancements and explores the role we all have in learning more, owning the conversations, and determining what we want technology to be.

Drawing on the example of post-WWII Britain and looking ahead at America in the 2020s, Jed Esty suggests that becoming a second-place nation is neither disastrous, as alarmists claim, nor avoidable, as optimists insist. Contemporary declinism often masks white nostalgia and perpetuates a conservative longing for Cold War certainty. But the narcissistic lure of "lost greatness" appeals across the political spectrum.

Acclaimed futurist, author, and digital strategist Bernard Marr delivers a compelling and engaging discussion of the technologies driving the impending—and ongoing—transformation of the internet, including blockchain, augmented reality (AR), and more. In the book, you'll explore the risks and opportunities presented by these game-changing techs and how they might impact you, your organization, and community.

For the first time in history, eight defined generations live side by side with each other, from Alphas to the Greatest Generation by way of Boomers, Xennials and others. The Multigenerational Revolution is a bravura call for change that argues that we should fully utilise the range of lives and experiences, helped by technological advances, to develop new ways of working and living together. It asks us all to experiment with new models of playing, learning, and working that take advantage of our longer lives and multigenerational society.

In Building Tomorrow, Paddy Le Flufy brings together six organizational technologies being developed and implemented by pioneering experts. Each of them fundamentally redesigns a key element of our economic system. Together, they form a holistic vision of a new system–one that can help us avoid the catastrophe looming on the horizon.
