Heidi Toffler Boeken

Since the mid-1960s, Alvin and Heidi Toffler have predicted the far-reaching impact of emerging technological, economic, and social developments on our businesses, governments, families, and daily lives. In REVOLUTIONARY WEALTH, they once again demonstrate their unparalleled ability to illuminate current trends and anticipate what they mean for the future. REVOLUTIONARY WEALTH focuses on how wealth will be created—and who will get it—in the twenty-first century. As the knowledge-based economy (a reality the Tofflers predicted forty years ago) continues to replace the industrial-based economy, they argue, money is no longer the sole determinate of wealth. The Tofflers explain that we are becoming a nation of “prosumers,” consuming what we ourselves produce, and argue that we have all taken on “third jobs”—work we unwittingly do without pay for some of the biggest corporations in the country. Using fascinating examples from our daily lives, they illustrate how our everyday activities—from parenting and volunteering to blogging, painting our houses, and improving our diets—contribute to a non-monetary economy that is largely hidden from economists. Writing with the same insight and clarity that made their earlier books bestsellers, the Tofflers present fresh, groundbreaking new ways of thinking about wealth.

Tretia vlna prináša so sebou úplne nový spôsob života, založený na diverzifikovaných obnoviteľných zdrojoch energie; na spôsoboch výroby, ktoré likvidujú väčšinu starých montážnych liniek; na nových, nenukleárnych rodinách; na novej inštitúcií, ktorá by sa mohla nazývať "elektronickou chatou" a na zásadne zmenených školách a firmách budúcnosti. V takto roztrojenom svete sektor Prvej vlny predstavuje poľnohospodárske a surovinové zdroje, sektor Druhej vlny poskytuje lacnú prácu a zabezpečuje masovú výrobu, a rýchlo rastúci sektor Tretej vlny si vytvára dominanciu, založenú na nových spôsoboch tvorby a využívania znalostí. Krajiny Tretej vlny predávajú svetu informácie a inovácie, manažment, kultúru i pop-kultúru, špičkové technológie, software, vzdelanie, výchovu, lekársku starostlivosť, finančné a iné služby. Jednou z týchto služieb sa možno ukáže byť vojenská ochrana, založená na velení dokonalejším silám Tretej vlny.
