What will the world be like in 2050? This book explores possible future worlds through eight speculative fiction stories. Taking in automation, big data, climate catastrophe and government dysfunction, each tale looks at the world through the eyes of people whose lives have been influenced by the societies they live in and the transport systems they live with.
Asking important questions about our values and the role of transport in society, this book will encourage planners, policy makers, researchers and anyone interested in a positive future for public mobility to take the steps to ensure we get there.
“Marcus Enoch takes futures research to another level. From chaos and catastrophe to competition and centralization, strap in for an entertaining ride to the future. This book inspires the reader to think outside the box - it’s entertaining but also challenging and provocative.” Graham Currie, Monash University
