'A wise, humane book laced with curiosity and hope. It will open your mind and horizons - and leave you giddy at the prospect of all that we may yet become.'
Tom Chatfield, author of How to Think
Humans can comprehend time like no other species, projecting our minds between past and future. Yet today we are so often trapped in the present, at the mercy of short-termist politics, quarterly business targets and 24-hour news cycles, while tomorrow's risks stack up.
It needn't be so. Craftsmen once built cathedrals over lifetimes, indigenous cultures embraced intergenerational reciprocity, and writers dreamed of worlds thousands of years hence. Now, as we face unprecedented long-term challenges, how do we recapture that far-sighted vision?
On a journey that takes us from the boardrooms of Japan to a secret artwork hidden in a Welsh forest, The Long View shows us how to expand our minds into deeper timescales, and discover
meaning, perspective and hope along the way.
'Utterly brilliant. Profoundly thought-provoking, and at times movingly
personal, The Long View is a crucial exploration of our relationship with time.'
Lewis Dartnell, author of Being Human
