Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is changing everything – from the way we relate to each other, to the way our economies work, to what it means to be human. We cannot let the brave new world technology is creating simply emerge. We must shape the future we want to live in.

Shaping the Fourth Industrial Revolution draws on contributions by more than 200 of the world's leading technological, economic and sociological experts to present a practical guide for citizens, business leaders, social influencers and policy-makers. It outlines the most important dynamics of today's technological revolution, highlights important stakeholders that are often overlooked in our discussion of the latest scientific breakthroughs, and dives into 12 different technology areas key to the future of humanity.

By connecting the dots across domains and exploring the practical steps that individuals, businesses and governments can take, this book looks to bring all stakeholders together to actively shape an inclusive and sustainable future.
