WHAT COUNTS - FACTS, TRENDS AND VISIONS FROM SCIENCE, POLITICS AND CULTURE
What’s in, what’s out, what’s still around, what counts? This annual book publication provides answers with facts, trends and visions from the fields of society and business, technology, ecology and politics. In compact and entertaining form, it tells of the challenges of tomorrow and how we are facing up to them; theoreticians and practitioners from a wide variety of areas are given a platform. The ideas blog also provides insights into current trends and ideas. You will find out what use the normal distribution of worldwide happiness (and unhappiness) is to you and what open-source car suits you best.
Serious and entertaining science, deep background and overviews, the informative and the bizarre – the book brings all these together in a selection of the best stories from “Abstrakt” and offers high-level entertainment for all those who expect more than humdrum routine from every coming year.
