| book description |
We know that we must change ourselves and the world if we want to survive. So why do we cling to old habits and false certainties instead of embracing change now? In New Beginnings, Stefan Klein delves into the most pressing problems facing our world — from the climate crisis to the rapid development of artificial intelligence — and investigates why individuals and societies often resist necessary changes, despite knowing the risks of inaction. Blending scientific insights with vivid storytelling, Klein unpacks the psychological and social forces that keep us stuck, and identifies what he calls the ‘seven illusions about progress’ that hinder our ability to adapt. Central to his analysis is the idea that transformation is not only necessary but also achievable, provided we understand the mechanisms of change and embrace a mindset that values adaptability. New Beginnings stands out for its ability to make complex global challenges comprehensible and relatable. With his trademark clarity and optimism, Klein inspires belief that necessary change is not only possible but accessible for a sustainable future.
