Overview
If you live on planet Earth youāre probably scared of the future. How could you not be? Some of the worldās most stable democracies are looking pretty shaky. Technology is invading personal relationships and taking over jobs. Relations among the three superpowersāthe US, China, and Russiaāare growing more complicated and dangerous. A person watching the news has to wonder: is it safe to go out there or not?
Taking inspiration from his virally popular VICE column āHow Scared Should I Be?,ā Mike Pearl games out many of the ācould it really happen?ā scenarios weāve all speculated about, assigning a probability rating, and taking us through how it would unfold. He explores what would likely occur in dozens of possible scenariosāamong them the final failure of antibiotics, the loss of the worldās marine life, a complete ban on guns in the US, and even contact with extraterrestrial lifeāand reports back from the future, providing a clear picture of how the world would look, feel, and even smell in each of these instances.
For fans of such bestsellers as What If? and The Worst Case Scenario Survival Handbook, The Day It Finally Happens is about taking future events that we donāt really understand and getting to know them in close detail. Pearlās āwell-researched speculations induce daydreams and nightmares and mark [him] as one of his generationās most interesting writersā (Alec Ross, New York Times bestselling author).
