The year is 2393, and the world is almost unrecognizable. Clear warnings of climate catastrophe went ignored for decades, leading to soaring temperatures, rising sea levels, widespread drought, and the disaster now known as the Great Collapse of 2093. Dramatizing science in ways traditional nonfiction cannot, The Collapse of Western Civilization reasserts the importance of scientists and the work they do, providing a welcome moment of clarity amid the cacophony of climate-change literature.

Estamos perdiendo nuestra capacidad de no hacer nada. Nuestra existencia está completamente absorbida por la actividad y, por lo tanto, completamente explotada. Dado que solo percibimos la vida en términos de rendimiento, tendemos a entender la inactividad como un déficit, una negación o una mera ausencia de actividad cuando se trata, muy al contrario, de una interesante capacidad independiente.

Kriminelle Spekulanten und ahnungslose Politiker haben ein nachhaltiges Wirtschaften verdrängt. Der Mensch ist in den Hintergrund geraten und wir mussten erkennen: Finanzkapitalismus ist schlicht und einfach schlechter Kapitalismus. In "Kapitalfehler" erklärt das Bestsellerduo Weick/ Friedrich allgemein verständlich, wie ein vernünftiger Kapitalismus wirklich funktionieren kann, und es scheut sich nicht, Fehlentwicklungen, die verbrecherischen Banken sowie die wahren Abzocker klar zu benennen.

In The Bushido of Bitcoin I distill lessons from experience and the great stories of the past into a playbook for the modern warrior: for the new elite to channel their power, wealth and influence with Character. It combines insights from powerful military cultures with the great thinkers of all time: Nitobe, Nietzsche, Spengler and Hoppe; Feudalism, Christianity and Austrian Economics. The book focuses on virtue in action – not morality. My goal is to show you how the great and noble behave. All warrior cultures lived by codes of virtue, and it's time we found ours.

Our predictions of the future are a wild fantasy, inextricably linked to our present hopes and fears, biases and ignorance. Whether they be the outlandish leaps predicted in the 1920s, like multi-purpose utility belts with climate control capabilities and planes the size of luxury cruise ships, or the forecasts of the '60s, which didn't anticipate the sexual revolution or women's liberation, the path to the present is littered with failed predictions and incorrect estimations. The best we can do is try to absorb from futurism's checkered past, perhaps learning to do a little better.

Taiwan achieved inclusive, technology-fueled growth, overcame the pandemic without lockdowns and the infodemic without takedowns, entrusted its people to tackle shared challenges like environmental protection while capitalizing on a culture of innovation to hack the government. Here, the architects of Taiwan's internationally acclaimed digital democracy share the secret of their success. Plurality harnesses digital tools not to replace humans or trust, but to channel the potential energy in social diversity that can erupt in conflict instead for progress, growth and beauty.

A tremendous upheaval is coming this century: with every degree of temperature increase, roughly a billion people will be pushed outside the zone in which humans have lived for thousands of years. While we can and should do everything we can to mitigate the impact of climate change, the brutal truth is that huge swathes of the world are becoming uninhabitable. Mass migration will remake the world in the 21st century, either by accident, or design—and as Royal Society Science Prize-winning science journalist Gaia Vince shows us, far better the latter.
