More about the book

From NYU Business School professor Scott Galloway comes an urgent analysis of who stands to win and lose in a post-pandemic world. The COVID-19 outbreak has transformed bedrooms into offices, deepened divides between generations, and widened gaps between the wealthy and the poor, as well as political factions. Some businesses, like Peloton, Zoom, and Amazon, found themselves overwhelmed by consumer demand, while others, such as restaurants and travel industries, faced near obliteration. Galloway argues that the pandemic has acted more as an accelerant of existing trends than a catalyst for change. He outlines the contours of the crisis and the opportunities ahead, suggesting that powerful tech monopolies will thrive amid disruption, while industries like higher education will struggle to justify their value in a world where physical presence is limited. The pandemic has also highlighted deeper societal issues, revealing a growing disconnect between the ideal of America as a land of opportunity and the harsh realities of declining wellbeing. With his signature humor and sharp insights, Galloway offers both warnings and hope, emphasizing that our collective future is shaped by our choices and that no trend is permanent.
