Safeguarding collective wisdom is a powerful tool for civilization to overcome the major upheavals ahead. n nClimate change, civil unrest, wars: How will we make it through the tough times looming ahead of us? By remembering, Mary Soderstrom argues. n nOurs is not the first time in history when catastrophe has threatened societies, and using examples from China, the Roman Empire, and North American Indigenous cultures, Soderstrom shows how memory can lead the way toward the future. Before We Forget examines how memory works in people and then details how we store our collective memories in libraries and archives, as well as in the vastness of the electronic universe. n nIn part an entertaining history of knowledge and where we keep it, Before We Forget allays fears and encourages people to develop strategies for safeguarding collective and individual wisdom, which we will need to meet the challenges ahead.
