A thesis for the future
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Ability to anticipate the future is the first step to interpreting the present. The current global climate and all the racism, nationalism, and socioeconomic bias which plague the earth are part of a race to that future: the locomotive technologies, the twilight of OPEC, the decline of Germany and the breakup of Europe, the disintegration of the Soviet Empire, the deindustrialization of the Third World, electronic mercantilism, crime, Japan's current position in the technology sector... the American Renaissance: all part of a race to the future which is in actuality a race to the present; and thus, the world after oil. A very pleasant read; the complexities of our world put into terms which are both enlightening and entertaining.
