520 1 $a"We're not just living through an age of change. We're experiencing a change of age: the most profound inflection point in human history since the Enlightenment." "That's the thesis of this remarkable new book, Powerful Times. From terrorism and nuclear proliferation to emerging technologies that could change the nature of humanity to the rise of new and innovative economic powers, Eamonn Kelly weaves together seven powerful "dynamic tensions" that will fundamentally reshape human life in the coming decades. Kelly offers breakthrough insights into how these tensions will conflict and interact to create huge waves of change beyond anything we've seen before."
520 8 $a"Using scenario thinking techniques pioneered at Royal Dutch/Shell and nurtured at Global Business Network, Kelly evokes the different futures that might unfold as a result of the interplay of these dynamic tensions - and the profound implications for society and business. This book will help you prepare for what's coming - and transform this moment of uncertainty and complexity into unprecedented opportunity."--Jacket.
