As The Future Catches You, Juan Enriquez, 2004.
B. The book gave a in depth talk about genetics, DNA, prices, which are the poorest countries and other such information. It talked about how prices on everthing are going up. It was an eye opener to see how much things have changed since 1900's. How much the prices have gone up. The genetics and DNA part was very dull. Was too hard to understand at a highschool level.
C. The theme I chose was "Don't let a little bit of change affect your life."
D. The theme is significant because if people let the changes affect their lives then the changes will be harder and harder to take in.
