International Speaker Series 2009 When physicist Niels Bohr said, “Prediction is very difficult, especially of the future,” he could have been thinking of our era. How can we see through the enormous challenges of the present to prepare for the future? What are likely scenarios for the world economy, politics, environment, energy, and health? We have asked the world’s leading experts on these issues to share their thoughts on…The World in 2020.
