This thought-provoking book examines the interactions between time, politics, scientific evidence and philosophy in order to understand how the emergence of lethal challenges to civilisation, such as nuclear weapons, climate change and possibly artificial intelligence, is already generating a fledgling 'politics for the future', based on rational fear rather than utopian hope.
