It traces the emergence of accelerating innovation rates through global history and highlights major historical transformations throughout the evolution of life, humans, and civilization. The authors pursue an interdisciplinary approach, also drawing on concepts from physics and evolutionary biology, to offer potential models of the underlying mechanisms driving this acceleration, along with potential clues on how it might progress. .The contributions gathered here are divided into five parts, the first of which studies historical mega-trends in relation to a variety of aspects including technology, population, energy, and information.

In turn, the third part explores various potential future scenarios, along with the paths and decisions that are required. The fourth part presents philosophical perspectives on the potential deeper meani | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | Big History trends towards near-term singularity; Innovations in global history; Historical transforma | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-33730-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-33732-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-33730-8Series ISSN 2522-0985 Series E-ISSN 2522-0993 | | issn_series | 2522-0985 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
