Summary of The Future by Jennifer Gidley PDF

From the beginning of time, humans have been driven by both a fear of the unknown and a curiosity to know. Our forebears tried to create certainty in the unknown, byseeking to influence outcomes with sacrifices to gods, preparing for the unexpected with advice from oracles, and by reading the stars through astrology. As scientific methods improve and computer technology develops we become ever more confident of our capacity to predict and quantify the future by accumulating and interpreting patterns form the past, yet the truth is there is still no certainty to be had. This introduction considers some of our most burning questions about what the future is.
