Lessons from the cutting edge of “remapping” reveal how to thrive in the new global economy. This book delves into how we think and how we can improve our decision-making processes. Drawing on groundbreaking research in neuroscience, it explores the security implications of rapid change in emerging economies and offers practical strategies to navigate global challenges. Author Margaret M. Polski uncovers the neurobiological foundations of policy, arguing that effective political and economic strategies are rooted in the networks within our bodies and brains. Adapting these networks to new realities is essential for protecting prosperity. Polski applies her insights to three critical areas: defending national interests, taking offensive actions to safeguard those interests, and strengthening the financial system. She also provides actionable “rules for the road” to enhance competition in global markets, build secure communities, manage energy and resources, invest in critical infrastructure, address trade impacts, and prepare for future catastrophes. With over two decades of experience as a political economist and consultant, Polski leverages social neuroscience research to offer insights that empower individuals to thrive amid change. The book encourages readers to think independently, uncover intuitive interactions between mind and environment, and overcome biases that hinder effective decision-making.
