The Seventh Sense Lib/E: Power, Fortune, and Survival in the Age of Networks


Audio Format Add your own review!

Overview

Endless terror. Refugee waves. An unfixable global economy. Surprising election results. New billion-dollar fortunes. Miracle medical advances. What if they were all connected? What if you could understand why? The Seventh Sense is the story of what all of today's successful figures see and feel: the forces that are invisible to most of us but explain everything from explosive technological change to uneasy political ripples. The secret to power now is understanding our new age of networks. Not merely the Internet, but also webs of trade, finance, and even DNA. Based on his years of advising generals, CEOs, and politicians, Ramo takes us into the opaque heart of our world's rapidly connected systems and teaches us what the losers are not yet seeing -- and what the victors of this age already know.

Reviews

The Seventh Sense ultimately isn't just about witnessing the power of human connections, but also harnessing that power to change the world. Highly recommended. -- Midwest Book Review Combines historic sweep and incisive detail...A powerful idea, backed by stories and figures that will be impossible to forget. -- Walter Isaacson, # 1 New York Times bestselling author Ramo is sometimes vague but sometimes profound in a postmodern way that's not the usual stuff of Washington think tanks...It all makes for provocative reading. -- Kirkus Reviews Ramo writes with ease and authority about the technology, history, and foreign policy of this power shift, giving us an essential guide for the future. -- Fareed Zakaria, New York Times bestselling author The author's easy authority about these transformative issues is as evident in his performance as it is in his prescient insights regarding how networks and machine intelligence will upend the world. The low-key seriousness in his reading works well with his arresting message...[and] he is utterly convincing. -- AudioFile The next president needs to read The Seventh Sense...Ramo's latest book is a fascinating guide to the way the world is changing. -- Malcolm Gladwell, New York Times bestselling author
