Stories of the Future

People have always pondered what lies beyond the horizon for them – about the future. How did philosophers, theologians, and scientists envision the future? And in general, how does homo sapiens collectively think about the future and attempt to create... it? And how do other living species do this, from bacteria to baobabs and bats, which use complex biochemical and neurological mechanisms? What are the options for the future both in the near term and billions of years away? And will there ever be an end of times? This and much more is discussed in the book by contemporary historian and philosopher David Christian.
