Bombarded by new technologies that continue to transform everyday life, we find ourselves stunned by a digital revolution that could overturn the global economic environment. As such, it is no wonder we’re concerned about our future, as a confusing influx of information and unanswered questions overwhelm us.

Meanwhile, the 21st century mercilessly counts down as a ticking time bomb, perchance to explode at any moment. Are we to become a sacrificed generation? And what of those to come? How will our children survive? The great Stephen Hawking predicted that, should nothing be done to combat waste or global violence, we could all disappear within the next few centuries. His observation – an insightful warning, really – should frighten us all into enriching our values. For the youth, education will play a crucial role; they will need to evolve from a state of by-the-book learning to one that allows the creative mind to flourish.

This book outlines how we can build a bridge to an outstanding, yet realistic destiny for mankind. We begin with the pillar of Resilience to extend our lifespans, followed by Ideas and Values to enhance them. Finally, we must stand by the final pillar of Tolerance to ward off those who would destroy that which we have so carefully constructed.

Discover why and how this bridge can help us cross the 21st century into the arms of safety.
