When Larry King calls to ask what the world will be like in the next century, you don't tell him you're too busy to talk. Even Bill Gates finds the time to discuss the impact of e-mail on business ("The post office and delivery companies are going to see the quantity of correspondence they deliver fall, but at the same time they'll see the amount of merchandise they deliver rise").

With more than 40 original interviews with people ranging from artist Peter Max to Vibe's national affairs editor Farai Chideya, King covers all the major topics, including politics, science, media, education, business, the arts, and spirituality; he even gets input on the future of baseball from sportscaster Bob Costas and acting commissioner Bud Selig. In addition to knowing whom to talk to, King also knows to let them do most of the talking. His unintrusive questions allow his guests to flesh out their ideas in significant detail.
