What would the ideal society of the future look like ? In 1516, the eminent english humanist Thomas More tried his hand at imagining a perfect society on a distant island. His "Utopia" was published in the flemish town of Leuven, home of a university that was established almost a century earlier. 500 years later, scholars of the university revisit More's best-known work and reflect on the ideal society of the future, using the scientific insights of today, including perspectives which More could never have imagined. What will our cities look like a hundred years from now ? How will stem cell research and 3D printing change the world ? Will we be able to cure all diseases ? Will we be travalling to other planets ? Will computers take over ? Or will humanity find a way to improve the quality of life for everyone and feed a growing world population ? In " A truly golden handbook", more than fifty KU Leuven scholars share their science-based utopian dreams. From the creation fo spare organs, artificial intelligence and the genetic future, to global governance, ecological sustainability and pathways to more equality, this visionary book offers a broad interdisciplinary look at the world of tomorrow.
