Possibility Sciences

di Terry Young (Autore)

Ideapress Publishing, 2026

The greatest challenge of this century isn’t imagining a better future. It’s building the systems capable of bringing it to life. In Possibility Sciences, Terry Young introduces a new discipline that explains why some bold ideas reshape the world while others stall—and how to create the conditions in which breakthroughs endure and compound. Humanity has never possessed greater imaginative or technological capacity. Yet the institutions responsible for turning possibility into progress remain optimized for another era—rewarding short-term performance, incremental improvement, and operational efficiency over long-horizon transformation. We are entering an era defined by the Possibility Gap: the widening distance between what humanity can imagine and what our systems are capable of realizing. Rather than asking what the future will be, Possibility Sciences asks a different question: How do breakthroughs actually emerge, spread, and redefine what’s possible? Drawing on concepts such as Return on Future, Stickability, Stackability, Zero-Waste Innovation, Possibility Commons, Community-as-Laboratory, and Horizontal Combinatorial Innovation, Young presents an integrated architecture for enabling breakthrough ideas to move from possibility to lasting societal impact. Written for leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, policymakers, strategists, institution builders, and anyone committed to shaping a better future, Possibility Sciences is more than a book about innovation. It is the foundational introduction to a new discipline designed to move beyond prediction and incrementalism toward intentionally building the futures we want to create.
