In Harnessing Disruption, Sarah E. Kreps--a national security expert and military veteran--offers a timely framework for understanding how societies respond to transformative technologies. From AI to nuclear weapons and cryptocurrency, Kreps shows that disruption is not collapse but part of a recurring pattern. Technologies emerge, warnings surface, crises unfold, and institutions adapt. Drawing on historical cases and contemporary challenges, she outlines a five-stage cycle that helps explain why some innovations spiral and others stabilize. For policymakers, technologists, and engaged citizens, this book offers a roadmap for navigating risk without surrendering the promise of progress.
