Features: The books selected in this volume demonstrate this point. The intuitive, experiential nature of these stories becomes a splendid image when visualized. In the new century, countless characters and stories will enter film, painting, music, literature, historical sites, theme parks, home decoration, and collections, becoming a part of everyone's life and existence today. The case studies of historical stories and personal experiences will also bring them into fields such as law, economics, finance, and management, serving as a creative repository to validate theories and seek opportunities. Radical futurists have predicted that human society is transitioning from the fourth form, the "information society," to the fifth form—the society of dreams and stories. By the 21st century, homes, department stores, and neighborhoods will all be "storytelling," and history embodies the labor and struggles of our ancestors and neighbors, serving as the source of stories for the world we currently inhabit.
