Despite our best intentions, our most transformative innovations tend to have consequences we can't always predict. From the effects of social media to the uncertainty of AI and the consequences of climate change, the outcomes of our creations ripple across our lives. Time and again, our seemingly ceaseless capacity to create rubs up against our limited capacity to understand our impact. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAssembling Tomorrow\u003c\/i\u003e explores how to use readily accessible tools to both mend the mistakes of our past and shape our future for the better. We live in an era of \"runaway design,\" where innovations tangle with our lives in unpredictable ways. This book explores the off-­­kilter feelings of today and follows up with actionables to alter your perspective and help you find opportunities in these turbulent times. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMixed throughout are histories of the future, short pieces of speculative fiction that imagine the future as if it has already happened and consider the past with a critical yet hopeful eye so that all of us--as designers of our own futures--can create a better world for generations to come.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eScott Doorley\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer, designer, and the creative director at the Stanford d.school.
