Multi-award-winning scientific futurist Dr. Catherine Ball takes us on an inspiring journey through upcoming technological breakthroughs that can positively impact our world. Amid global challenges like food shortages, conflict, declining manufacturing, health issues, and climate change, Dr. Ball offers a refreshing perspective on how science and technology can provide solutions. She emphasizes that many of these advancements remain unknown to us, which hinders their wider adoption. Dr. Ball opens our eyes to the vast potential of technology and encourages us to engage in meaningful conversations about its future. She poses critical questions: What role can AI play in revitalizing local manufacturing and creating jobs? Is it possible to vaccinate against cancer? How can drones help save lives and support environmental efforts? Furthermore, she explores how we can leverage modern technologies to enhance our longevity and well-being. Written with wit and personal anecdotes, the narrative presents an optimistic and thorough exploration of a future where humanity fully embraces technology. Unlike other futurists who merely report on research or dream about possibilities, Dr. Ball actively investigates how science and technology can be harnessed to create a hopeful legacy for future generations.
