and one of the 'top ten global thinkers of the last decade' (Foreign Policy), foresees the nature of a post-pandemic world: the political, social, technological and economic consequences that may take years to unfold. Written in the form of ten ’lessons’, covering topics from natural and biological risks to the rise of ’digital life’ to an emerging bipolar world order, Zakaria helps readers to begin thinking beyond the immediate effects of COVID-19 and about how we are truly social animals with community embedded in our nature, and, above all, the degree to which nothing is written - the future is truly in our own hands. Ten Lessons for a Post-Pandemic World speaks to past, present and future, and will become an enduring reflection on life in the early twenty-first century.
