The ticking of the clock takes us from the past to the future every 3 seconds. In his thought-provoking book Smile at the Future, David Schaeffer examines the future that mankind’s creativity is fashioning for itself, and then reveals the underbelly of the human race: its corrupt nature where we weaponise what could have been used for our collective good. In the midst of a longevity revolution, he goes on to ask “How much time do we have this side of the grave?” and “How much time do we have on the other side of the grave?”

Thoughtfully compiled and compellingly written, this book provides a perspective on life and helps us formulate answers to life’s toughest questions.
