Why do some societies crumble under pressure while others rise stronger?

What can the past teach us about surviving the shocks of the future?

And how can humanity adapt in the age of AI?

Reviews of the book:

Poindextrous (Verified Purchase)

5.0 out of 5 stars  Historically interesting book about using the past to predict the future

Reviewed on 26 September 2025

"There is a lot in this book to get your teeth into.  I like the way the author draws analogies from real historical landmark events, and marries up the past with the present to predict the future course of events in order for industries & cultures to weather the storms & withstand the wedges often driven by the forces of change.

The strongest parts of the book are historical scenes — Perry's black ships steaming into Japan, the British disaster in Kabul, Roosevelt's New Deal."

This far-reaching book cites key historical events (such as wars, pandemics, renaissances) to explain why societies adapt or fail. The historical snippets are interesting, and the breadth of the book is commendable.

Definitely worth the read because of the well-researched historical events.
