"Canada in Our Age of Discovery: Navigating the Risks and Rewards of the Second Renaissance"

The world economy has never been more connected, and scientific discoveries and technologies are changing it quickly. Canada has navigated the challenges well so far. But much of the world is struggling: the gains from trade and innovation are unequally shared, trust in institutions has faltered, populism is rife, and pressing challenges are neglected.

In his best-selling book, Age of Discovery: Navigating the Risks and Rewards of Our New Renaissance, Dr. Chris Kutarna (BCom/00) makes sense of the surprising time we live in and offers guidance to help navigate it toward humanity’s best future.
