Herman Kahn - What will life be like in the year 2000? (1973)

Introduction

Would you like to know how the majority of Americans like their sex? Or what the yearly per capita income for the average Indian peasant is? Or when, if ever, the world’s energy supply will reach a critical low? Or why Japan is destined to exercise hegemony over the eastern half of the globe in the decades to come?

If so, Herman Kahn is the man to talk to. He could provide you, not only with the factual data to support his answers, but, if you so wished, could even interrelate all of those seemingly disparate questions into one, sweeping, meaningful projection — possibly the survival potential for the Judeo-Christian ethic in Western Europe for the next thirty years.
