Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow
by Andrew Maynard
Published by Mango Publishing, October 2020
Future Rising is Andrew’s second popular (as opposed to academic) book, and takes a unique and compelling approach to exploring our relationship with the future, and our responsibility to it.
Embark on a journey into the future
The future holds a unique fascination for most of us. Simultaneously unknowable yet strangely malleable, it saturates our lives as completely as the air we breathe. Yet how many of us can truly say that we understand what the future is, and how we’re connected to it?
In Future Rising, Andrew Maynard takes you on a remarkable journey from the Big Bang to our collective responsibility to future generations. Weaving together ideas and insights from science, philosophy, art, and more, Future Rising traces a pathway along the emergence of intelligent life, through what makes us uniquely capable of imagining and creating different futures, to the profound challenges and opportunities that come with this. Through sixty short reflections, Future Rising reveals a compelling vision of the future and how it impacts our lives. Beguiling, serendipitous, often-startling, and ultimately life-affirming, Future Rising will change how you think about the future and your relationship with it.
