It has to become possible again.

Max Thinius is Europe's leading futurologist. He thinks in possibilities while others are still wondering which challenges might be heading our way.

In this book he makes the case: it has to become possible again. Our lives, our economy, our politics, our pensions, our health system, our climate – all of it. So why isn't it? And what can we do about that? At some point in the development of our species, we stopped thinking in possibilities. Instead, we think in efficiency, challenges, solutions, problems. What we no longer think in is the one thing that lets us shape our future, positively and from within ourselves.

Why possibilities are more. How we find our way back to them. What stands in our way. How we can set things in motion. You'll find all of it in this small book. And it needn't be any bigger, because none of this is complicated. We simply have to become aware of it. It's written for individuals, organisations and entire regions – because wherever you go, it's people. Enjoy shaping the future with your possibilities.
