Should we paint the future rosy or feel sceptic? Eighteen prominent personalities of Czech public life reflect on the key questions of the present and the possible shape of our tomorrows. Conversations about the future of man, society and the planet form a changing kaleidoscopic picture of our civilization, the final arrangement of which is left to the reader. They gave us a glimpse into their world of thought: economist Tomáš Sedláček, journalist Jindřich Šídlo, naturalist and priest Marek Orko Vácha, psychiatrist Cyril Höschl, geneticist and doctor Radim Brdička, mathematician and entrepreneur Karel Janeček, evolutionary biologist Jaroslav Flegr, musician Tomáš Klus, biologist and philosopher Stanislav Komárek, military expert Miroslav Lipowski, historian Václav Marek, politician Matěj Stropnický, media analyst Jan Podzimek, anthropologist Martin Soukup, diplomat and psychologist Michael Žantovský, semiotician Josef Šlerka, anarcho-capitalist Urza and philosopher Jaroslav Peregrin. The author is preparing a free sequel to this book, this time exclusively with women.
