About this book

Takes an holistic approach to the possible trends of the next century, looking specifically at the alternate futures that humanity may carve for itself. Although obviously general in concept the authors contributions are of use to anyone looking to frame and conceptualise the 21st century in new terms, even within the confines of specialist disciplines. The wide ranging discussions cover mapping the future, for example the future as metaphor and problems with forecasting, and exploring global visions, such as demographics, gender relations, new economics, the urban issue, and the environment.
