The Future of Geography by Marshall T

The Future of Geography by Marshall T

From the New York Times bestselling author of Prisoners of Geography and leading geopolitics expert comes an "insightful, hopeful, and endlessly fascinating" (Daily Express) book on today's new space race and the geopolitics of space--including the increasingly tense power struggle between the US, China, and Russia and what it means for all of us here on Earth.

Spy satellites orbiting the moon. Space metals worth more than most countries' GDP. People on Mars within the next ten years. This isn't science fiction--it's reality.

Humans are venturing up and out, and we're taking our competitive spirit with us. Soon, what happens in space will shape human history as much as the mountains, rivers, and seas have impacted civilizations around the world. It's no coincidence that Russia, China, and the US are leading the way. The next fifty years will change the face of global politics and the world order as we know it.

In this must-read work, bestselling author Tim Marshall navigates the new astropolitical reality to show how we got here and where we're heading. Extensively researched, "thought-provoking" (Popular Science), and drawing on the latest information from intelligence, government, and civilian institutions, this book provides a detailed, clear account of the new space race, the power rivalries, and how technology, economics, and war have a ripple effect on everyone across the globe. Written with all the insight and wit that have made Marshall one of the world's most popular and trusted writers on geopolitics, The Future of Geography is an essential read about global power, politics, and the future of humanity.
