"The end is at last near!" It's a tremendously appealing story, widely held now and in history. It has consequences, and that's the subject of this Seminar About Long-term Thinking by Sam Harris, author of the incendiary, reverse-apocalyptic book, "The End of Faith" (2005).
"The View from the End of the World" was given on January 13, 02005 as part of Long Now's Seminar series. The series was started in 02003 to build a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking from some of the world's leading thinkers. The Seminars take place in San Francisco and are curated and hosted by Stewart Brand. To follow the talks, you can:
