The Future Starts Here

John Higgs' narration of 'The Future Starts Here' is nothing short of captivating. His voice conveys the depth and emotion required for discussing such a wide range of topics—from early futurist movements to present-day technological advancements. The pacing is just right, neither dragging nor rushing through critical points. What sets this audiobook apart is its balance: it’s not overly academic but still packed with insightful information. I particularly appreciated Higgs' critique of how our modern narratives often focus on doom and gloom instead of the potential for positive change. However, there are a few sections where the dense subject matter could have benefited from slightly more narrative flow to keep less engaged listeners invested. Overall, it’s an essential listen for anyone interested in understanding the future through a hopeful lens.
