Product Information

a.As a species, we are profoundly talented architects of our own future. And yet, we so often struggle to come to terms with what this means and the responsibility that comes with it. As our world is driven along by the breakneck speed of innovation and rapidly-shifting norms and expectations, we sometimes need to take time out, to find a still, quiet place, as we try to piece together a picture of the future that makes sense. This book sets out to create such a "quiet place" in the minds and lives of its readers. Through a series of sixty short reflections, it takes them on a unique and often-startling journey into what the future is, how it molds and guides their lives, and why they should care. At times entertaining and at others profound, the book provides a highly original perspective on our relationship with the future that will delight and intrigue readers, while challenging them to think differently about the future we're building together. Written to be easy to pick up and hard to put down, the book starts at the beginning of all things with the Big Bang, and traces a pathway along the emergence of intelligent life, through what makes humans uniquely capable of imagining and creating different futures, to the profound responsibilities that this comes with. Along the way, it weaves together the familiar and the new, to leave readers with a rare and compelling vision of their relationship with the future, and their responsibility to it. On a more practical note, the book responds to a growing interest in books about the future, and especially how human behavior affects it--including our environmental impacts. Compared to the competition, it touches on more interesting ideas, it's easier to read, it isn't preachy, and it's short enough to avoid being mistaken for a doorstop

Reviews
"Taking the reader on a journey through time, space, and the human experience, "Future Rising" makes you think about our responsibility to the future of our species and our planet in a refreshing way without a complete "doom and gloom" lens that so many futurism tales can take." - Dr. Tanya Harrison, co-author of For All Humankind, "Humans have a unique ability to create technologies that profoundly impact our bodies and environment. As the power technology affords us grows, it's important to understand how we got to this point, and our responsibilities to the future. Andrew Maynard, a tech geek with a big heart, takes you on a journey from the big bang to the present. He implores the reader to understand our relationship to technology and plan ahead so that when the future rises to meet us we are prepared to make it a future of which we can be proud." - Dr. Kelly Weinersmith, co-author of Soonish, "Maynard has written a thoughtful and thought provoking response to the moment we're in, chronicling how we got here, where we're going, and what role we have in that journey forward. Written in an engaging and accessible style, Maynard explores topics ranging from art and creativity to memory, intelligence and potential threats ahead in a series of short essays. This book could easily be enjoyed in short bursts, but more likely, readers won't be able to put it down once they start." - Ramona Pringle, Director of Creative Innovation Studio and Associate Professor, Ryerson University, A deeply researched book that will make you question the morality of technology, and how science has shaped the world today. Maynard's incisive take on cutting edge problems make this a rewarding experience for anyone questioning what the future will look like. - Zara Stone, journalist and author of The Future of Science is Female.
