Erudite, bold and wideranging a book that makes you think about knowledge, wisdom and what the future has in store. PETER FRANKOPAN'A book of remarkable sweep and scope not just learned, but deeply humane.' TOM HOLLANDThe long human odyssey of selfdiscovery has reached a crucial stage: everything we do affects everyone and everything else and we know it. The next hundred years will bring more change than we can easily imagine: more opportunities for more people to achieve the fulfilment of a good life, and more risks that could result in catastrophic harm to the entire planet.Viewed geopolitically, the main question is whether the worldviews of the worlds most important and influential powers China and America (the one fundamentally Confucian, the other essentially individualist) can be made to work together constructively.At the same time, on a deeper level, the even greater question is how the irreversible fact of urbanisation may nurture healthy and mature human individuality, such that the accumulated wisdom of the worlds great cultures becomes mutually transforming and enriching.This bold and wideranging book explores those questions, with all the risks and opportunities they hold for generations still to come.
