From the York Times bestselling authors of Abundance and BOLD comes a practical playbook for how technology is converging to radically change our future. Technology is accelerating far more quickly than anyone could have imagined. During the next decade, we will experience more upheaval and create more wealth than we have in the past hundred years. In this gripping and insightful road map to our near future, futurist Peter H.

What will happen to the way we raise our kids, govern our nations, and care for our planet?
