Book Synopsis

"The Seventh Sense" by Joshua Ramo is a groundbreaking exploration of the new power that has emerged in the digital age.

He explores how it can be leveraged to address pressing global challenges, such as cybersecurity threats and economic inequality. Additionally, he cautions against the dangers of misusing this power, emphasizing the importance of accountability and transparency.

"The Seventh Sense" offers a powerful roadmap for individuals and organizations seeking to harness the full potential of this new era. With his captivating writing style, Ramo provides a compelling and thought-provoking guide to understanding and embracing the seventh sense—a vital skill for navigating an increasingly interconnected and complex world.
