As we enter the 21st century, the greatest challenges we face may not be environmental, but psychological-a failure of vision prompted by a world beset by so many problems that people have lost hope and fear that things can only get worse. Earthfuture restores optimism by providing us with positive, and achievable, alternatives. With its mix of utopian fiction and reportage of near-reality, Earthfuture sows the seeds of an alternative future with skill and obvious delight. Highly readable and accessible, it will appeal to a wide readership tired of the doom and gloom.
