While humanity faces unprecedented ecological and social challenges, advances in technology and our understanding of the mind are creating the conditions for a global renaissance. Weaving together personal transformation through transhumanism with a call for global collaboration, author Milan Kordestani presents an inspiring roadmap to a brighter future.
Humanity stands at a crossroads. Technological development outpaces our confidence, with each innovation bringing both wonder and unease. We grapple with the fear of the unknown and the anxieties of a rapidly changing world. We wonder if new technologies will decimate our job market, increase inequality, or endanger our species. But what if the key to unlocking our full potential lies not in clinging to the familiar, but in embracing humanity’s potential for radical thinking?
Moonshot Moments is a marriage of science, philosophy, history, and futurism.
