Today's book is a stand-alone sequel to "Predictions: Society's Telltale Signature Reveals the Past and Forecasts the Future", which provided a new way of understanding society and ourselves by applying scientific concepts to predicting social phenomena. In addition to taking up the challenge of confronting the predictions made 20 years ago with actual data-something, forecasters generally refrain from doing so; the book includes many new topics that became relevant more recently.
