Here, leading social philosopher Roman Krznaric unearths fascinating insights and inspiration from the last 1000 years of world history that could help us confront the most urgent challenges facing humanity in the twenty-first century.

The important work of human and cultural understanding has been nested in thorny political agendas that often don’t invite healthy exchange. Rather than feed into the political divide, Dr. Kyle Reyes presents an approach to understanding differences that prioritizes humanity. Personal growth and transformation come from honest reflection and self-analysis. In Lenses of Humanity, Dr. Reyes illustrates how we can improve and develop more human understanding, embrace humane practices, and find deeper connections across differences.

In this short, exhilarating book, renowned scientist and best-selling author Martin Rees argues that humanity’s prospects depend on our taking a very different approach to planning for tomorrow.

FUTURE FOR HUMANITY presents unique ways to approach life with guests who are living the meaning of their life.

The Philosophy opens with the most human of questions—“What’s the point?”—and dares to follow it wherever it leads. This isn’t just another thought experiment or self-help book. It’s a rallying cry for those who feel the systems around us are broken, yet refuse to believe we are powerless to change them.

The Fate of Humanity is about two things: The oneness of humanity, and humanity’s path toward maturity. My central message is that as a species, we can mature beyond all prejudice and xenophobia, and we can also save our beautiful, fragile planet.

I believe that at the end of each show, you will be aware of and understand many perspectives on issues of which you may formerly have been utterly unaware. My promise is that the show will usually educate and hopefully, often utterly fascinate you. The...
