In the tradition of the now-classic Future Shock by Alvin Toffler, world-renowned economist and political adviser Jacques Attali predicts how our world will look in the coming decades and a century from now. Will terrorists, pirates, dictators, droughts, and floods create global chaos? Or will peace, prosperity, and greater freedom bless the planet? Never has the world offered more promise for the future yet been more fraught with potential dangers. How we respond to the crises and opportunities that await us will determine what kind of world we will bequeath to our children and grandchildren. The time to act is now. |
