Hardcover. Condition: new. Product DescriptionThe most important question we must ask ourselves is, Are we being good ancestors?So said Jonas Salk, who developed the polio vaccine in 1953 but refused to patent it-forgoing profit so that more lives could be saved.Salks radical generosity to future generations should inspire us. But when leading philosopher Roman Krznaric examines society today, he sees just the opposite: Our short term, exploitative mindsets have colonized the future. Businesses eschew civic responsibility for immediate gains, politicians throw their support behind whatever will win the next election, and we all struggle to focus our attention beyond the next alert from our phones. The result? An inexcusable chasm between the haves and have-nots-and mounting existential threats-have brought our species to the precipice of disaster.Yet Krznaric sees reason to hope. Yes, the urgent struggle for intergenerational justice calls for hugely ambitious solutions, from rewiring our growth-at-all-costs economy to giving voters of future generations a voice in our democracies. But at the heart of all these changes is one we can enact within ourselves: We must trade shortsightedness for long-term thinking.In The Good Ancestor, Krznaric reveals six practical ways we can retrain our brains to think of the long view, including Deep-Time Humility (recognizing our lives as a cosmic eyeblink) and Cathedral Thinking (starting projects that will take more than one lifetime to complete). His aim is to inspire more time rebels like Greta Thunberg-to shift our allegiance from this generation to all humanity-in short, to save our planet and our future.Review2020 Foreword INDIES Honorable MentionBeautiful to read, heartfelt, and persuasive . . . one of those landmark books with the power to shift a mindset. One turns the pages feeling a growing compulsion for change.-Isabella Tree, author of WildingA philosophers contribution to saving the world.-The GuardianFull of revelations for everyone who cares about the legacy they leave. This is the book our childrens children will thank us for reading.-The Edge, U2Philosopher Roman Krznaric calmly calls for a reorientation toward the future, not to benefit us, but to benefit our far-off descendants. . . [The point is] to emphasize the agency of the present moment and the potential, however imperfect, to influence the future.-The AtlanticRoman Krznaric addresses the greatest challenge confronting the world: How can humanity survive this century and flourish in the next? His book deserves to be widely read-by policy makers, and indeed by all citizens who care about the prospects for their children and grandchildren.-Professor Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal and author of On The FutureA provocative and well-written . . . essay on the history of the human race and its possible future.-ChoiceIt is a clich to declare a book essential reading, but in this case it is true. In a little more than 300 pages Krznaric develops a powerful set of concepts and a frame that will serve to refresh and undergird the civic rationale of public planning.-Journal of the American Planning AssociationA work of genius that draws on the wisdom-traditions of cultures from across the globe.-Martin Kalungu-Banda, Ubuntu Lab and Sad Business School, Oxford UniversityThe individualistic philosophies of the last century have generated huge concentrations of wealth-but at the same time put us on the road to social, political, and environmental collapse. This clear-sighted and inspiring book suggests a different view of who humans are and what they really value-and a number of ways off that lethal road. Its a must-read for anyone whos looking for the good news.-musician and composer Brian EnoA great antidote to the short-term thinking that comes easily to us all. If you want to be a good ancestor, start by reading this book.-Nigel Warburton, author of A Little History of Philosophy and found.
