From the man the Wall Street Journal describes as a 'global change guru', more than one hundred of the trends that touch every aspect of our lives. This new and updated edition looks even farther into the future, predicting trends past the first decades of the 22nd century. Patrick Dixon looks at how the future will be Fast, Urban, Tribal, Universal, Radical and Ethical - a future of boom and bust and great economic change as the emerging markets grow up; a future of great advances in medicine and also greater threats from viral epidemics; a future of political shocks and greater conflicts; a future in which people will strive for more privacy and businesses will change the way they relate to their staff and their customers; a future in which there will be driverless cars and solar power generated in the desert will power cities thousands of miles away.

In this updated edition, Dixon shows how recent developments confirm his predictive scheme:
Artificial intelligence and robotics - profound power and influence over our future world
Beyond Brexit - the longer term future of the EU and UK
The long-term impact of the MeToo movement
The future of Truth - Fake News, propaganda and impact on democracy
Presidential leadership - rise of powerful figureheads across the world, and potential future conflicts
And in an entirely new chapter, Dixon extends his predictive horizon to see how the future will look one hundred years from now.

From the Back Cover:
Exhilarating. Fast, far-sighted insights into the horizons of future change.'
Nigel Nicholson, Professor of Organisational Behaviour, London Business School

The world of 2030 will be Fast, Urban, Tribal, Universal, Radical and Ethical - a world of great economic change as the emerging markets grow up; a world of huge advances in medicine and also greater threats from viral epidemics; a world of political shocks and greater conflicts, but also enormous opportunities for those with the wit to navigate the shifting tides.

Patrick Dixon is the man the Wall Street Journal called 'a global change guru'. In this updated edition of his futurological classic, he shows how recent developments confirm his predictive scheme:

Artificial intelligence and robotics
Beyond Brexit - the long-term future of Europe
The future of sexual equality
Fake News, propaganda and impact on democracy
Presidential leadership - rise of powerful figureheads across the world

And in a gripping new chapter, he looks even further beyond the horizon of the present to reveal the outlook for global change one hundred years from now.
