If you’ve been listening to BetterPod over the last few months, it won’t come as a surprise that we think future people matter. So we were very excited when we heard that one of the most important philosophers working today had written a book arguing for longtermism – effectively, why we should and how we can act today for a better tomorrow.
William MacAskill’s What We Owe the Future is only just out but it’s already shaping ethical debates around the world. Stephen Fry called it “a book of great daring, clarity, insight and imagination”, while Joseph Gordon-Levitt said he was moved to tears by its optimism.
William MacAskill wants to change how you think about tomorrow – and how you act today… on this episode of BetterPod he tells us why.
