What is it like to live in a society utterly focused on what is going to happen next? In Trees on Mars: Our Obsession with the Future, cultural critic and indie entrepreneur Hal Niedzviecki asks how and when we started believing we could and should ''create the future,'' arguing that the short-term purview of innovation is not always as effective as we think it is. On the contrary, it''s often damaging. Through real-life examples, he shows how future-obsession and future-anxiety are affecting people in the now.
