Sample Book Insights:

#1 In 2015, two civilians using drones to shoot video inadvertently prevented firefighters from putting out a rapidly spreading California wildfire. The FAA was estimating that a million drones would be sold that year, but no government agency had yet decided on regulations for how everyday Americans could use them.

#2 A future scenario in which drone highways are built over unoccupied land could lead to a shift in how our cities are built and maintained. Without proper city planning, these new centers will suffer from traffic jams and a lack of sustainable basic civic resources.

#3 Futurists are skilled at listening to and interpreting the signals talking. They know that most patterns will come to nothing, and so they watch and wait for those few that will evolve into genuine trends.

#4 We must dedicate time and effort to planning for the future. However, our fear and rejection of the unknown has been an ongoing thread throughout human history. We continue to struggle with this problem, from generation to generation, suggesting that we’ve internalized a belief that the future is something that happens to us, rather than something that we create.
