It has become received wisdom that our world is doomed, that we
live in the End of Days. Bleak predictions by psychics and
scientists alike portend extreme weather, droughts, famines and
floods that will overtake humanity within the century, or sooner.
If not global warming, then supervolcanoes, meteoric impacts,
nuclear war, bioterrorism, or natural plagues will get us. But
whatever happens, Michael Hanlon believes that humankind will go
on...and on. The shape of things to come will be strange, and
somewhat terrifying, but will very likely seem banal to the people
who inhabit it in the future. Humankind may be thrown back to the
Stone Age on hundreds of occasions and may come close to
extinction. But recovery will follow--each time more rapidly than
the last. The world of 10,000 years hence, let alone 100,000,000
years hence, will be strange and almost unrecognizable. But no
matter how battered and re-born, it will still be "our" world,
populated by "us" through eternity.
