Description
The world is hurtling through a fundamental turning point in history. We are living through a revolution that is changing the way we live, think, communicate and prosper.
We now have the ability to store all the world's information and make it available almost instantly, in almost any form, to almost any one on earth.
Using this ability to the fullest will change your world at least as much as the alphabet, the printing press, the steam engine, the automobile or television.
The world desperately needs a parallel revolution in life-long learning to match the information revolution, and for all to share in the fruits of an age of potential plenty.
Fortunately, that revolution is also gathering speed. This book tells its story.
In part it's a story of major breakthroughs in knowledge about the greatest human resource of all: the almost limitless power of the billions of cells and connections that make up the human brain.
It's also the story of remarkably simple achievements in new learning and teaching techniques: methods that make The Learning Revolution an invaluable resource for parents, students, school administrators, teachers and leaders in the "learning organizations" that will form tomorrow's communities and businesses.
The Learning Revolution is also that rare combination: a book that is fastidiously researched, yet written as crisp and clean as an electronic beep.
