We live in an era of momentary needs and short-term thinking. Global corporations are ready to do anything to meet the growing demands of shareholders, natural resources are being used up at an unprecedented rate, and politicians are debating the use of nuclear weapons. What will be left for our descendants? Not abstract "future generations", but our grandchildren and great-grandchildren? Will we leave them a safe, comfortable world, or a lifeless ashes? In his book, philosopher and sociologist Roman Krzhnarik explains how to ensure that future generations can consider us good ancestors, establish a personal empathic connection with people we may not be destined to meet and whose life we can hardly imagine. He offers six conceptual and practical ways to develop long-term thinking that form the basis for creating a new, more conscious world order that opens the way for a culture of long-term horizons and responsibility for the future. And although it is unlikely that the reader will be able to influence the fate of all mankind, everyone can make a contribution to a good future for our descendants.
