WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR THE HUMAN RACE
When future archeologists dig up evidence of the current age, they’ll be amazed at the rate of change that today’s generations adapted to—and the growing pains we endured in a period of intense, dynamic flux. But while technology and science are moving forward at an astonishing pace, human nature changes at a glacial pace, if at all.
We live in the very nucleus of this disparity, struggling to keep up with radical changes that are transforming us, our loved ones, and every man, woman and child on this planet. Buckle yourself in, because this thrilling, unsettling whirlwind is only going to gain strength in the foreseeable future.
I’ve had a lifelong fascination with issues at the tumultuous intersection of science and society. My writings dig deeper into the human impact of the whirlwind.
