Book Recommendation: How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan
As a scientist, I greatly enjoyed Pollan’s explorations of the neurobiology and evolutionary history of psychedelics in his 2018 book How to Change Your Mind: What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression, and Transcendence. Check out this blog to find out why I found this to be a compelling read.
Book Recommendation: The Signals are Talking: Why Today's Fringe is Tomorrow's Mainstream by Amy Webb
Are you kickstarting your futurism practice? I highly recommend reading this book, and setting aside time for you and your team to try out Webb’s approaches. Future forecasting is a learned skill, with the right frameworks and a great deal of practice, we can improve in identifying where the future is going - and how we can prepare ourselves, our organizations, and our societies for those futures.
