Audio Bonus! Includes exclusive conversations with the authors!

From the New York Times best-selling authors of Abundance and Bold comes a practical playbook for technological convergence in our modern era.

In their book Abundance, best-selling authors and futurists Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler tackled grand global challenges, such as poverty, hunger, and energy. Then, in Bold, they chronicled the use of exponential technologies that allowed the emergence of powerful new entrepreneurs. Now the best-selling authors are back with The Future Is Faster Than You Think, a blueprint for how our world will change in response to the next 10 years of rapid technological disruption.

Technology is accelerating far more quickly than anyone could have imagined. During the next decade, we will experience more upheaval and create more wealth than we have in the past hundred years. In this gripping and insightful roadmap to our near future, Diamandis and Kotler investigate how wave after wave of exponentially accelerating technologies will impact both our daily lives and society as a whole. What happens as AI, robotics, virtual reality, digital biology, and sensors crash into 3D printing, blockchain, and global gigabit networks? How will these convergences transform today’s legacy industries? What will happen to the way we raise our kids, govern our nations, and care for our planet?

Diamandis, a space-entrepreneur-turned-innovation-pioneer, and Kotler, best-selling author and peak performance expert, probe the science of technological convergence and how it will reinvent every part of our lives - transportation, retail, advertising, education, health, entertainment, food, and finance - taking humanity into uncharted territories and reimagining the world as we know it.

As indispensable as it is gripping, The Future Is Faster Than You Think provides a prescient look at our impending future.

An amazing book that blew me away with what is actually capable today via science and technology. To think that we're on track to make what used to be 100 years of progress into 10 years of progress is staggering. I highly recommend this book.

Peter Diamandis is AWESOME!

Well worth a read/listen. For anyone interested in becoming a billionaire, this is how you do it. Find a cutting edge industry and learn everything you can about it and then help billions of lives. I love all of Peter’s work and highly recommend this to anyone to know where we are going!

Spot on. Definitely called the NFT boom!

Strong insights about what direction the future is moving. Was very interesting to hear Peter discussing what are now called NFTs all the way back in early 2020. Definitely ahead of their time! Nice to see an optimistic view of where the future is going as well. Looking forward to seeing what converging technologies the next book discusses!

Read/Last stem Now

Peruse this work ASAP, as many of the topics in this work are rapidly coming true and will soon be history, not future think.

Well done and thought provoking and stirs the imagination . I was constantly thinking about how a concept would affect my work or life or thinking about how I could do something with that to forge forward with idea to make a better future myself.

I love this book

Peter is the real deal one of the top futurists of our time. Read this book or be left behind

It's Is Really Sooner The You Think.

great audio as usual. I love the sound of the future but I see privacy as a lost thing in this tech Eutopia.

Peter and Steven do a great job at addressing some of the down side to acknowledging the misuse of tech. but I think they under estimate people's desire for power and hording of money and resources.

I guess we'll see how much of their book holds to the good nature of people in the long run.
