Synopsis

OUR CHANGING WORLD: How New Developments in Science, Technology, Business, and Society are Changing Our Life features short commentaries on new developments that are changing everyone’s life. The book was inspired by a series of articles on these topics, initially published in the Huffington Post, which have been turned into a book with 20 chapters on what to expect. The book features chapters divided into these five sections: - High tech devices and trends - Mind and body discoveries - Amazing animals - Pop culture and society - Business and work The chapters in each section feature comments and suggestions on the present and future changes in our life. Some examples are: - some amazing new devices such as talking toothbrushes and forks - why lottery winners might do better if winners could give money away; - how blindly following a GPS can lead to problems; - the end of road rage with the rise of driverless cars; - chimp memory power and the decline of human intelligence; - the new cinematographers – animals with critter cams and video cameras; - the new science of bringing back extinct animals; - new technologies enabling people to see with their tongues - how mind control is becoming for real; - the possibility of living forever.
