In this perceptive collection , Doris Lessing addresses directly the prime questions before us all: how to think for ourselves, how to understand what we know, how to pick a path in a world deluged with opinions and information, and how to look at our society and ourselves with fresh eyes.
The five collected essays are generally meant to be read in order though they can be read independently. The essays appear in the collection in the order that they were delivered as lectures.
The titles of the essays are:
1 - When In the Future They Look Back On Us;
2 - You Are Damned, We Are Saved;
3 - Switching Off to See "Dallas";
4 - Group Minds;
5 - Laboratories of Social Change.
