Imaginable is an invitation to think more creatively and optimistically about how the future might be different.

This book isn’t just for reading. It’s for playing!

By playing games with the future, we can unstick our minds and overcome our “normalcy bias.” We can discover hard-to-predict possibilities. We can discover our own sense of “urgent optimism” and feel more motivated and hopeful about the changes we can make in our own lives and in society.
