leadership has been articulated, studied and debated by
academics, but also by practitioners, journalists, and
others who seek to influence the thoughts of others.

ISBN : 9781847941855.

This book explores the burning question of how to master
the technologies we create before they master us. How do
we make choices today that will result in a world we want
to live in? O-Reilly applies techniques his pioneering
company has used to predict and make sense of past
innovation waves to provide a framework for thinking
about what he calls the -WTF technologies- of the twenty-
first century. He believes a world ruled by machines that
are hostile to humanity is not a distant possibility, and
that the systems we are building today are already
shaping that future.

ISBN : 9781464803420.

Every policy relies on explicit or implicit assumptions
about how people make choices. Those assumptions
typically rest on an idealized model of how people think,
rather than an understanding of how everyday thinking
actually works. This year-s World Development Report
argues that a more realistic account of decision-making
and behavior will make development policy more effective.
