Dear All,
'Future Shock' Author Alvin Toffler, the far-seeing futurist, who predicted humanity's rising anxiety with digital and technological progress in his hugely influential 1970 book "Future Shock," has died at the age of 87.
-- 'Future Shock' Author Alvin Toffler, the far-seeing futurist, who predicted humanity's rising anxiety with digital and technological progress in his hugely influential 1970 book "Future Shock," has died at the age of 87.
- All of those predictions — which were expanded upon in two influential followup best-sellers, "The Third Wave" (1980) and "Powershift" (1990) — have already come true.
- "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn. "
- "If you don't have a strategy, you're part of someone else's strategy."
- "Change is not merely necessary to life — it is life."
- "It is no longer resources that limit decisions, it is the decision that makes the resources."
May his soul rest in peace.
