We don't need a crystal ball to predict our planet's future. What we have are outstanding scientists who provides us with a projection of what our world will look like in 40 years. Geoscientist and Guggenheim fellow Laurence C. Smith draws on the latest global modeling research to construct a sweeping thought experiment on what our world will be like in 2050. In his head-turning book "The World in 2050: Four Forces Shaping Civilization's Northern Future", Smith provides a vivid forecast of the future, distilling cutting-edge research into four global forces: demographic trends, natural resource demand, climate change, and globalization.
