Synopsis "The 2010s: Looking Back At A Dramatic decade (in English)"
"Time is the most precious commodity of all. It must therefore be used wisely, for once it has passed it is gone forever." Looking back at the past decade one would be forgiven for wondering whether the world is further away from global harmony than when it began. From the barrage of civil wars emerging throughout the Middle-East to the U.S. presidential election of a man who brags of his tax avoidance, the 2010s have been more reminiscent of a tragic Hollywood movie. This book is a concise, humorous yet informative overview of the most pivotal events from the past decade, covering politics, business, technology, science, culture and everything in between. A lighthearted yet comprehensive read, this book will offer an objective critique of the most prominent events, some of which may even pleasantly surprise you. Alongside the text are enlightening pictures, graphs and graphics to aid understanding. Topics include: Why the Middle East has been at war for most of the decade How a controversial ex-television host became president of the U.S. How China is primed to surpass the U.S. as the next top superpower How the Chinese Yuan and Euro are gaining ground on the once dominant Dollar Changes in jobs and employment and the true extent of automation The latest and greatest science and technology developments Climate change and its role in the increasing number of natural disasters over the past decade How today's youth have grown up differently than their preceeding generations How genders are now not as simple as they once were. Can there really be more than two genders? Jason Strong is an accomplished engineer who has retired from a long career on the frontier of technological innovation to put pen to paper and share his wealth of experience. Whether automating construction equipment or optimising autonomous machinery, very few are better placed to more accurately identify upcoming trends.
