Synopsis The Year 2100 by : Kyu Hwang

The book is a hybrid of fiction and projection, comprehensively including predictions on the future world. Fictional parts of the novel used to vividly portray fictitious figures carrying out national policy to impact on the world order. The prevalent land grab in the Third World now will develop into putting a whole nation on sale if a fortune will be offered to the citizens of target country. Thus, China will use its immense foreign currency reserve to annex a small country like Solomon Islands in the beginning stage, and then expand further into Eurasia. Likewise, other world powers will expand territories by the will of incorporated citizens. In result, political map of the world will differ much from current world. And rivalry in Asia will ignite spread of nuclear arsenals to satisfy their national pride but deep economic integration within the continent will set aside Cold War mentality for mutual prosperity. The gloomy prospect of food & energy will exacerbate the anxiety of contemporaries until awakened leading countries devoting to reverse the nightmare. After the mid-21st century, the haunting effects of climate change and peak oil will capitulate to the ingenuity and will of people, thereby next generation will access closely to a utopian world.

Synopsis The Future of Almost Everything by : Patrick Dixon

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.

Synopsis The Next 100 Years by : George Friedman

“Conventional analysis suffers from a profound failure of imagination. It imagines passing clouds to be permanent and is blind to powerful, long-term shifts taking place in full view of the world.” —George Friedman In his long-awaited and provocative new book, George Friedman turns his eye on the future—offering a lucid, highly readable forecast of the changes we can expect around the world during the twenty-first century. He explains where and why future wars will erupt (and how they will be fought), which nations will gain and lose economic and political power, and how new technologies and cultural trends will alter the way we live in the new century. The Next 100 Years draws on a fascinating exploration of history and geopolitical patterns dating back hundreds of years. Friedman shows that we are now, for the first time in half a millennium, at the dawn of a new era—with changes in store, including: • The U.S.-Jihadist war will conclude—replaced by a second full-blown cold war with Russia. • China will undergo a major extended internal crisis, and Mexico will emerge as an important world power. • A new global war will unfold toward the middle of the century between the United States and an unexpected coalition from Eastern Europe, Eurasia, and the Far East; but armies will be much smaller and wars will be less deadly. • Technology will focus on space—both for major military uses and for a dramatic new energy resource that will have radical environmental implications. • The United States will experience a Golden Age in the second half of the century. Written with the keen insight and thoughtful analysis that has made George Friedman a renowned expert in geopolitics and forecasting, The Next 100 Years presents a fascinating picture of what lies ahead.

A Glimpse of the Future: Earth in the Year 2100, by Jonathan Goldsmith In the year 2100, Kansas City lies in ruins, a haunting consequence of the devastating nuclear Third World War that ravaged the Earth. Amidst the post-apocalyptic wasteland, two young warriors, Anya and Kai, emerge from the shadows of an underground training facility. Trained in the deadly arts of combat, archery, and swordmanship, they step into a world where the law of the jungle reigns supreme. As they navigate this perilous new reality, they encounter Wren, an enigmatic visitor from another planet. Initially at odds, the trio soon forms an unbreakable bond, united by a common enemy: the Order, a sinister organization led by the ruthless Kane. The Order seeks a powerful artifact hidden deep within an ancient underground library, an artifact capable of bending the will of humanity to their control. Anya, Kai, and Wren must embark on a treacherous journey to find this artifact before the Order can seize it. Their mission grows more urgent as they learn of a new threat: the Marsiliptians, a Martian race desperate to colonize Earth and exploit its dwindling resources. Together, they must confront dark forces and malevolent energies guarding the artifact, risking everything to protect their city and, ultimately, the future of humanity. "A Glimpse of the Future" is a gripping tale of survival, friendship, and the indomitable human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds. Join Anya, Kai, and Wren as they fight to reclaim their world from the clutches of tyranny and forge a new destiny for all. GRAB YOUR COPY TODAY!
