In her new novel, “The Future,” the bestselling author suggests that, with enough money, kindness and yes, tech, our world could be transformed.

This is the way the world ends: not with a bang or a whimper, but an alert from an early-warning system sent to one’s personal device, signaling imminent apocalypse. The alert isn’t for you or me or the billions of others on our planet.
