Rob Newman: 21st Century Survival Guide
Advance Price: £21
Hot on the heels of his new novel, INTELLIGENCE, Rob Newman returns to offer a Survival Guide to the 21st Century. How do we defend ourselves from oil shocks, chatbots and billionaire Tech Bros inciting civil war? Or stop AI stealing half our water, and water companies poisoning the rest? In a whistlestop tour of new ideas, Newman explores what clues history offers us for when the rich and powerful go ape.
