El veterano periodista Fernando J uregui indaga en las transformaciones que vienen. Los felices a os cincuenta... O no
Este es un libro reportajeado, investigado y escrito pensando en 2050: c mo ser nuestra vida a mediados de este siglo? Su autor, un veterano gran periodista y escritor, dice que en ese a o cumplir los cien. Pero no espera poder soplar el centenar de velitas, entre otras cosas porque no ha seguido los consejos que l mismo recoge aqu para llegar bien hasta los ciento treinta a os. Ahora apenas pide tiempo para comprobar si algunos de sus pron sticos -aqu incluidos- se cumplen. Por ese motivo J uregui dedica este volumen a las generaciones j venes, sobre todo a la «generaci n zeta de la futura Leonor I , que a n est a tiempo de sacar provecho de las recomendaciones que un centenar de expertos ofrecen en este libro cuyo t tulo alternativo podr a haber sido: «La felicidad est a dos d cadas y media y hay que buscarla desde ya . El Cambio es mucho m s que el ansia de felicidad o incluso de inmortalidad, de la que aqu tambi n se habla. El Cambio, y m s en estos azarosos tiempos, consiste en entender que la Nueva Era, la Gran Transformaci n, nos afecta a todos, en todo y todo el tiempo. Nadie est al margen de esta nueva realidad. Conozc mosla, asum mosla y obremos en consecuencia. Aqu est n las claves en cien(tos de) palabras.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONVeteran journalist Fernando J uregui analyzes the transformations we can expect in the next few decades. The carefree fifties... Or not This is a book researched, written and reported with an eye toward 2050. What will our lives be like by mid-century? The author, a well-respected journalist and writer, will turn 100 that year, but he doesn't expect to blow out the candles on his cake because, let's face it, he isn't following the advice out there about how to live until the age of 130. All he asks for is enough time to gauge whether some his predictions - including the ones in this book -will come true. J uregui dedicates his work to today's young people, especially "the Gen Z of the future Leonor I," who are still in time to benefit from the recommendations of the hundreds of experts he cites in this book, whose alternate title could be: "Happiness is two and a half decades away, and you'd better start looking for it now." Change is much more than a search for happiness or even immortality, which it also addresses; it is about understanding that the New Era, the Great Transformation, will affect us all, in every sense, all the time. No one can choose to sit out this new reality. We must understand it, process it and address it. J uregui gives us the keys, in a (few) hundred words.
