Publisher Description
From gunpowder to generative AI, the forces of disruption are repeatedly rewriting the rules of business, society, and human possibility. But what drives these revolutionary changes?
In Epic Disruptions, innovation expert Scott Anthony weaves together the stories behind history's most transformative disruptions. Through eleven pivotal innovations, Anthony reveals the hidden patterns behind world-changing breakthroughs. But Epic Disruptions goes beyond just celebrating invention. Through storytelling and analysis, Anthony introduces the iconoclasts who dared to think differently—the Renaissance-era scientists, French-cooking enthusiasts, and corporate visionaries who saw opportunities others missed. He decodes how genuine disruption actually happens, stripping away the mythology.
As artificial intelligence and other technologies promise to unleash another wave of transformation, Epic Disruptions arrives at the perfect moment—offering innovators and curious listeners a fascinating exploration of how radical change reshapes industries, launches new powers, and occasionally changes everything.
