Preparing for a Different World
A guidebook to a future we may long for but can't conceive of yet. Highly original essays such as "A Vision of the Future", "Why Worry?' "When Nothing Satisfies" & "Mortality, immortality, beyond' are truly mind opening journeys. Beautifully illustrated, highly reflective, eminently practical. A vital personal companion to keep close by.
Many people see the future merely as an extension of the past - more people, more technology, more wars. This book doesn't start there. The author opens up a vital, new proposition.to court the future, to partner it, to create with it. The original essays, beautiful illustrations and meditations in the book evoke a future you may never have conceived of yet. Essays such as "A Vision of the Future" and "Whatever possessed you to do that?" are truly mind opening journeys, whilst "When Nothing Satisfies" and "Why Worry?" promote the letting go of that which prevents the future. Highly reflective, eminently practical, thoroughly enjoyable and a natural sequel to his previous book, the acclaimed 'Why is the Human on Earth?' Mark Ballabon is a natural philosopher and author, nominated for a prestigious 2015 Kindred Spirit Award and whose books have received high rated reviews around the world.
