Enlightening and thrilling, "History for Tomorrow" by George Monbiot explores the profound impact of history on our present and future. Drawing on his bestselling books "Regenesis" and "How Did We Get Into This Mess?", Monbiot delves into the past to shed light on who we are and who we could be. This joyful and informative book opens our minds and souls, helping us to see with new eyes and to believe in ourselves as a species. Gail Bradbrook, Co-Founder of Extinction Rebellion, praises the book for its ability to inspire change. "What can humankind's rich history of radical revolts teach us about the power of disobedience to change climate policy? What inspiration could we take from seventeenth century Japan to create a regenerative economy today? How might the history of financial capitalism help us understand what it takes to bring AI under control?" These are the questions that "History for Tomorrow" seeks to answer. Leading social philosopher Roman Krznaric unearths fascinating insights and inspiration from the last 1000 years of world history that could help us confront the most urgent challenges facing humanity in the twenty-first century. From bridging the inequality gap and keeping AI under control, to reviving our faith in democracy and avoiding ecological collapse, "History for Tomorrow" shows that history is not simply a means of understanding the past but a way of reimagining our relationship with the future. Krznaric shows how, time and again, societies have risen up, often against the odds, to tackle challenges and overcome crises. History can offer a vision for radical hope that could turn out to be our most vital tool for surviving and thriving in the turbulent decades ahead.
