In its 4.5 billion–year history, life on Earth has been almost erased at least half a dozen times: shattered by asteroid impacts, entombed in ice, smothered by methane, and torn apart by unfathomably powerful megavolcanoes. And we know that another global disaster is eventually headed our way...

Aus aktuellem Anlass: Politischer und gesellschaftlicher Vergleich mit dem römischen Reich. Geburtenrückgang, Integrationsprobleme, Terrorgefahr: Oft hört man, solche Herausforderungen seien völlig neu, nie dagewesen, absolut beispiellos. Der Blick auf die Antike zeigt, dass das nicht stimmt. Schon einmal hat sich ein großer Teil der Welt zu einer Wohlstandszone verbunden, die mit ihren Chancen und Risiken dem modernen Westen erstaunlich ähnlich war.

Ohne Frage: Wir stehen näher am globalen Kollaps als die meisten glauben. Schade nur, dass in Politik und Wirtschaft immer noch meist diejenigen das Sagen haben, die am allerwenigsten dazu geeignet sind. In Zeiten von Klimawandel, Artensterben, Atombomben, Überbevölkerung, multiresistenten Keimen und unregulierten Finanzmärkten ist das eine Katastrophe.

The human population is growing at an alarming rate that cannot be sustained by current systems. The world has seen a 200 percent increase in the population rate from 1950 to the present day, putting humanity on the verge of self-destruction for all life on Earth. We are running out of fossil fuels, food supplies, and space while seeking to create more and more power to energize our modern world. The prognosis is bleak unless we find a way to create power and harness alternative energy to keep up with our current unsustainable demand.

For decades, science-fiction writers have amazed us and terrorized us with their portrayal of the world of artificial intelligence - from armies of cyborgs to legions of programmed zombies. Today, we are now living in that future age of robots and artificial intelligence and all those dreams of the past are coming true. Mechanical robots will soon be outdated with biologically created humanoids connected to each other across the globe. They will self-repair, gather energy from the sun, and live forever. They will be all-knowing and all-powerful like Gods that will walk the Earth.

Le titre de cet essai est volontairement provocateur : en effet, en 2013, la France risque la récession et devrait atteindre les 11% de chômage, selon l'OFCE. Néanmoins, le diagnostic de la crise est maintenant bien établi. Et, comme on dit en mathématiques, un problème bien posé est à moitié résolu. Nos usines ferment. Nous ne sommes plus compétitifs. Jusqu'à présent, nous avons pu maintenir notre niveau de vie par l'endettement. Mais c'est fini.

Following the massive international success "The Netocrats" and its ambitious follow-up "The Global Empire", in this third installment of the "Futurica Trilogy", Bard and Söderqvist approach something far more personal - the fragile human being herself and, most of all, her brain. "The Body Machines", with a title borrowed from René Descartes, explains what a brain is, how it has developed and how it functions, and why it spends such an incredible amount of time and energy on fooling itself.

History is always written from the perspective of the ruling or rising elite at the time of writing. Concepts like The Stone Age, The Bronze Age, et cetera, were of course unknown during those periods that used to be called the stone age and the bronze age. They were invented during the 19th century to make sense of a development that seemed to reach its climax with industrialisation and the modern factory.

There are three types of people when it comes to the future: those who will watch what happens, those who will make it happen, and those who will wonder what happened. Which will you be? Our society has widespread and unprecedented access to information, but what do we do with it all? Who do we trust to accurately track our societal trends, interpret them, and see possibilities for the future - and how can we help to shape that future? The answers lie in Futurecast, an insider glimpse of today’s world - and tomorrow’s.

The year is 2393, and the world is almost unrecognizable. Clear warnings of climate catastrophe went ignored for decades, leading to soaring temperatures, rising sea levels, widespread drought, and the disaster now known as the Great Collapse of 2093. Dramatizing science in ways traditional nonfiction cannot, The Collapse of Western Civilization reasserts the importance of scientists and the work they do, providing a welcome moment of clarity amid the cacophony of climate-change literature.

The future is not what it used to be. In this volatile era, with the world changing rapidly, people are more curious than ever to know what lies ahead. Will relentless consumerism end up destroying our planet? Or can science and technology allow us to innovate our way out of trouble? Perhaps a greater social consciousness and community-based living will take over or, conversely, the competition for limited resources may result in everyone fighting for themselves.

Since cities emerged 10,000 years ago, they have become one of the most impressive artifacts of humanity. But their evolution has been anything but linear - cities have gone through moments of radical change, turning points that redefine their very essence. In this book a renowned architect and urban planner who studies the intersection of cities and technology argues that we are in such a moment. The authors explain some of the forces behind urban change and offer new visions.
