4.0 out of 5 stars
Sobering predictions for the next 12 years,
This review is from: Futurecast 2020 (Paperback)
This is a sobering book. Many futurists evoke glowing or terrifying futures, but are hazy on the details of how the world will get from here to there. Not this one. Robert Shapiro is extremely specific. He grounds his predictions in his detailed knowledge of world events, explains the assumptions behind his reasoning, and admits where and how his forecasts may go wrong. The result is not easy reading: Shapiro's prose is dense and his topics grim. However, his book is highly useful. Anyone engaged in serious planning for the future should read it, so getAbstract recommends it to executives, investors and concerned citizens of the world who want to know where new trends will originate.
