Civilization is about to enter a new chapter in its history, yet most of us are so bogged down in our work, personal lives, and daily activities-surviving-that we forget about or don't see the big picture. Our Emerging World offers a timely, easy-to-read, and thought-provoking treatment of modern-day social and environmental concerns, discussing how Western and world development is unfolding.

As we face the interconnected issues of overpopulation, rising world urbanization, and climate change, we need to seek solutions and restore hope through a new way of thinking-the coming of a new Renaissance.
