Summary:
"Jane McGonigal is a futurist, named a "young global leader" by the World Economic Forum and renowned gamer that trains to see the future as a futurist does. In 'Imaginable' McGonigal draws on the latest scientific research in psychology and neuroscience to show us how to train our brains to think the unthinkable and imagine the unimaginable. Using gaming strategies and fun, thought-provoking challenges that she designed specifically for this book, she helps to build our collective imagination to dive into the future before we live it and envision, in surprising detail, what our lives will look like ten years out. She invites us to play with the provocative thought experiments and future simulations with the goal to : build our collective imagination ; develop the courage and vision to solve problems creatively ; take actions and make decisions that will help shape the future we desire ; access urgent optimism, and unstoppable force within each of us that activates our sense of agency."
