Rezensionen / Stimmen
"It is time for societies that can hurl so much energy and creativity into technological innovation to devote at least a fraction of the same resources to radically rethinking the obsolete economic theories of Left and Right alike, and their effect on societies all across the planet as we move into the next millennium."
Alvin Toffler
"As each breathtaking new development brings us closer together in communication and in common cause - building a true global electronic village - we have the chance to spread a new prosperity, a new literacy, a new love of freedom and democracy, and even a new sense of community to the farthest regions of the world."
Al Gore, Vice President USA
"I have always maintained that the future should be of great interest to all of us. It's where most of us will have to live. The next millennium will be, I am sure, even more amazing than the last. As a species, we are 'hard-wired' to explore our environment and our imagination. We should never underestimate the capacity of our own ingenuity to take us by surprise."
Sir Arthur C. Clarke KBE
