Why do we continue to think about, imagine, and forecast the future despite believing we will probably be wrong? Why do we need to do so? What does "the future" mean, and how do we relate to it? Is it possible that Western societies condition their members into inability to cope with the future? These and other fundamental questions are explored in The Future Is Ours, which is written as an intermediate text for use in future-oriented modules within BA courses in International Business, Management, Urban Planning, and Environmental Politics.
