This study answers this question by building a synoptic picture of the future directions in which public policy is likely to move by using contemporary theories of policymaking to deduce the implications for public policy of 'king trends': those technological, economic, environmental and social trends that can be empirically verified, affect the lives of large numbers of people and are expected by relevant experts to continue for at least the next 20 years or so."--Jacket
