Footnotes to the Future asks a deceptively simple question: how do we imagine what comes next? In this bold and thoughtful work, Richard Parr explores how our visions of the future are shaped not only by grand predictions and sweeping theories, but by the small, often overlooked "footnotes" we carry with us—memories, assumptions, habits, and the quiet traces of history.

From utopias and dystopias to personal daydreams of tomorrow, Parr shows that the future is never a blank page, but a palimpsest written over countless earlier drafts. Drawing on philosophy, literature, and science, he uncovers how the way we think about tomorrow reveals who we are today.

Insightful, imaginative, and deeply human, Footnotes to the Future is a guide to rethinking possibility itself. It reminds us that the future is not something waiting to happen—it is something we are already writing, line by line, in the margins of the present.
