Its epicentre lies in Silicon Valley, but its impacts are felt in all corners of the earth. It could give all of us a better quality of life and new, more cooperative ways of living. Or it could further entrench inequality, with even more of the world's wealth in the hands of a few. \u003cem\u003eThe Future of Everything\u003c\/em\u003e offers a bold vision for ensuring that we achieve the former: a world that is fairer, less violent, and most radical of all, more joyous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTim Dunlop spells out his ideas for reclaiming common ground systematically, arguing the case for more public ownership of essential assets, more public space, a transparent media system, and an education that prepares us for the future, not the past. His vision for democracy and society is practical and inspiring, based on ideas about what we are doing well and what we must do better. His is a vision for handing political power back to we-the-people so that we can stop playing defence and start changing the ground on which decisions about our lives are made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWelcome to the future of everything ...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854998196460,"sku":"9781742235646","price":95.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/e97c72e9a04033d88c7855ad873523a0.jpg?v=1759262844"},{"product_id":"why-the-future-is-workless-by-mr-tim-dunlop-9781742234823","title":"Why the Future Is Workless","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven as the robots gather on the near horizon, this book argues we have choices about the manner in which we greet them.

The question isn't whether robots will take our jobs, but what we will do when they do. The era of full-time work is coming to an end, and we must stop holding out the false promise that, at some magical moment, the jobs are going to reappear.
