Whether you see the world as emergent or, deteriorating. We have long known that some people favor innovation and look positively toward the future while others are frightened of change and want to halt innovation.
In Michael Crichton's book "Next," he explores the contrasting perspectives individuals hold regarding the future. Some people view the world as full of potential and embrace innovation, eagerly anticipating progress and new developments. This optimistic outlook leads them to support advancements that can enhance life and society.
Conversely, there are those who perceive the world as deteriorating and are apprehensive about change. This group often resists innovation, fearing the unknown and longing to preserve the status quo. Crichton effectively highlights the tension between these two mindsets, emphasizing how they shape our responses to future challenges.
