History and future

"Historians have traditionally rejected the idea that we can use the study of history to think about the future. History and Future re-examines this long-held belief and argues that the historical method is an excellent way to think about and represent the future. At the same time, the book asserts that futurists should not view the future as a scientist might - aiming for predictions and certainties - but rather should view the future in the same way that a historian views the past."--BOOK JACKET.
