Uncharted How to Navigate the Future
Reviews

Historical war ruins offers historical inventory to tell us that history doesn't repeat. Thus we better enable to take advantage of it. However history offer rich concepts, ideas &c to see what has happened in the past to them and why. History backwards makes much more sense. Anticipation of fall. Cathedral projects are always successful despite the level of uncertainty they face. They accept uncertainty as motivator. Embrace ambiguity. Artists rather take advantage of complexity than reduce it, because they're aren't afraid of contradictions and paradoxes. Uncertainty will always remain a constant in life.

This book had excellent stories around dealing with uncertainty but the book itself felt wandering and incomplete. It promised to deliver tools to deal with uncertainty but I don’t think it did that well. The premise around our desire for certainty is interesting, and the ways humans have attempted to reduce uncertainty–often poorly–informative. But I think Superforecasting by Philip Tetlock is a much more effective book on the subject.
