From the Foreword
“No intelligent person aware of the present world situation - the societies that make up the countries, the states - can deny that humanity is diseased. In fact, humanity is sick. Increasing pollution of the air, seas and land, continuing and growing economic catastrophes with many people losing their savings, pensions and homes while the few grow rich. Growing belligerence from the military who appear to manipulate or control governments, a few rich families who own the finances of countries and governments and who control the destiny of the masses of people on this planet. Growing control over the population with ever-increasing laws, the despair of the people shown by the rising amount of narcotics taken to allay the horror of present day life - the list is endless for those who see.
This book is for those who see and also those who suspect that all is not well with us. Seeing the reality - the problem - is half-way to solving the problem. Seeing the reality clearly is solving the problem but, at the moment, few see clearly. This book will point the finger.”

A list of contacts to help you on your way is at the back. You are not alone.
This book might appear to be short but the information and guidance in it is immense.
If you think that my book, The Future Is You is informative, true, useful and helpful then please, for the sake of all humanity, tell your friends about it. The intelligent among us cannot afford not to read this book.
I honestly believe that reading and understanding this book will change people and our society into a caring, sharing and equal society instead of one based on greed and stupidity. Namely:
- The unlimited greed and violence caused by small groups with enormous power over us by default.
- The politically-engineered ignorance and simple stupidity of the masses of us, who cannot see or who avoid seeing what is happening to us. This is producing a mean, limited and gray existence for you, me and for the majority of our world’s population.
Together, we can stop this and make a better world for ourselves and our children.
Keith Gascoigne
