On Phillips Cay

The Segmented World Book Series, Book 2

By: Francis Nash

Narrated by: Michael Maloney

Methuen Pryce has arrived with his wife and daughter on the remote Caribbean island of Phillips Cay. It is 2050. He is there to lead a Project–devised by the tech giant Allied Answers–aimed at creating a new type of sustainable society, in a world re-shaped by overpopulation, rising pollution and depleted resources.

On the quayside, he discovers an ‘AI gift’ from Nick O’Grady, the founder of Allied. ‘That will help you on your Way’, an attached note reads–referring to Methuen’s novel approach to implementing the Project Plan. But was the Plan designed to accommodate the influx of thirty boats in the bay, filled with people desperate to gain admittance? And how will the much-admired general manager of the former holiday resort react to the wave of changes being imposed on him?

Moreover, what can Methuen do when among the team of professionals brought in to assist him, he finds some who seem to oppose his authority? And then there is . . . The Incident that no one could have predicted on Phillips Cay.

Listen to both and learn futures thinking in an entertaining fashion — you won’t be disappointed!

David Nash’s "On Phillips Cay" is an extraordinary sequel that transcends the boundaries of conventional storytelling, the intricacies of political economy and future thinking. Picking up where "The Path to Phillips Cay" left off, Dr. Nash provide intellectually stimulating narrative, taking us into a visionary and deeply grounded story of the complexities of our time.

If you read or listened to Book1, you MUST do Book2; if you did not, you MUST do both. I can’t wait for Book3!

In the meantime, I have become a regular to Dr. Nash’s blog at www.segmentedworld.com and I hope Biden, Trump, Xi, and Putin do so as well. Our grandchildren and great-grandchildren will benefit as will we if they do so.
