\n In this urgent and \u201cthrillingly written\u201d book, there is a case and solution for humanity\u2019s last shot at survival (Sunday Times).<\/p>\n

Humanity\u2019s future is at risk. We face existential catastrophes, climate change, nuclear war, and more. If we do not act fast to reach a place of safety, it will soon be too late.<\/p>\n

Drawing on over a decade of research,\u00a0The Precipice\u00a0explores the cutting-edge science behind the risks we face. And it points the way forward, to the actions and strategies that can safeguard humanity.<\/p>\n

An Oxford philosopher, Toby Ord has advised the US National Intelligence Council, the UK Prime Minister’s Office, and the World Bank on the biggest questions facing humanity. In\u00a0The Precipice, he offers a startling reassessment of human history, the future we are failing to protect, and the steps we must take to ensure that our generation is not the last.<\/p>\n
