Summary of Chuck Klosterman's But What If We're Wrong?

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The Book of Lists, a book that my sixth-grade class compulsively thumbed through, was a collection of lists compiled by three writers. It was idiotic predictions about life on Earth in the coming fifty years, but some were surprisingly accurate.

#2 The Book of Predictions is a collection of predictions that was released in 1980. It is interesting to note that most of them focused on the future status quo of global politics: the United States and the Soviet Union were on the brink of nuclear war, and no one imagined that landline telephones would eventually be replaced by cell phones.

#3 The problem with the retrospective insight approach is that it requires a successful futurist to anticipate what can’t be anticipated. In order to move forward, we’re forced to use a different mind-set called Klosterman’s Razor.
