Inevitable Surprises: Thinking Ahead in a Time of Turbulence (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780743239110) Schwartz, Peter Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Simon Schuster Ltd, United Kingdom, 2004. Paperback. Book Condition: New. New edition. 198 x 130 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Events like the collapse of a major energy company or a devastating terrorist attack seem to come from nowhere. Not only are they shocking and disturbing, it often appears that their prevention would have been impossible. Not so, argues Peter Schwartz in this fascinating book. Many 'surprises', he says, soon acquire an aura of inevitability once the underlying patterns of behaviour are examined. And although we cannot do anything about the past, we can try to do something about the future. What, then, is the next big surprise? How might it play out? INEVITABLE SURPRISES covers high-level, universal trends -- from business to international affairs, from biotechnology to climate change -- but presents them in the context of the particular and concrete choices that different people must make. It distinguishes those forces beyond our control from the future that we can influence and help design -- for the world around us, for our organisations, and for ourselves.
