In their new book, Joseph Pelton and Peter Marshall warn that the twenty-first century is fraught with mega-challenges that threaten to converge into a “megacrunch.” These forces include climate change, systemic unemployment due to technological advances, the North-South gap, and a clash between traditional and modern cultures.
