How do attempts to foresee the future actually change it? For
thousands of years, humans have called upon foresight to shape
their own actions in order to adapt and survive; as Charles Darwin
revealed in his theory of natural selection, the capacity to do
just that is key to the origin of species. The uses of foresight,
however, can also be applied to help us further our understanding
across a variety of realms in everything from warfare, journalism
and music, to ancient civilizations, space weather and science. In
a thought-provoking new addition to the Darwin College Lecture
Series, eight distinguished authors each present an essay from
their area of expertise devoted to the theme of 'foresight'. This
provocative read reveals foresight as a process that can be
identified across all areas of human endeavour, an art which can
not only predict the future, but make it anything but inevitable.
