The Fourth Industrial Revolution Book Study Vol 2 Profound and Systemic Change

The Fourth Industrial Revolution Book Study Vol 2 Profound and Systemic Change - We continue study of this critically acclaimed, future-oriented research. Chapter 1 brings an understanding of just what is this "Fourth Industrial Revolution", contrasting it with earlier innovations in human progress from the entry of agricultural societies some 10,000 years ago, to the introduction of steam engines and railroads, electricity and assembly lines, transistors along with computers and the Internet, and the next wave which will incorporate massive computing power, artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotechnology, sensors as well as the Internet of Things. Things are already changing at exponential rates. Detroit has been usurped by Silicone Valley with 30 times the market capitalization and 10% of the number of employees. There is a great danger that this will further split society into the empowered minority of "haves" dominating the mass of former laborers who make up the have-nots or have-littles. Using our Kujichagulia Villages vision, we can create a safe space to grow into as the world changes. (LIBMP3899B)
