Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The future is dark, which is the best thing the future can be. We often mistake the one for the other. We transform the unknowability of the future into something certain, the fulfillment of all our dread.
#2 The freeze movement was full of people who believed they would realize their goal in a few years and go back to private life. But in less than a decade, major nuclear arms reductions were negotiated, helped along by European antinuclear movements and the impetus provided by the last Soviet president, Mikhail Gorbachev.
#3 Hope is not like a lottery ticket you can sit on the sofa and hold onto. It is an ax you break down doors with in an emergency. It requires people who throw themselves actively into what is becoming, to which they themselves belong.
