This easy to read, non-technical book offers a high-level, if sometimes simplistic analysis of the challenge of shifting demographics coupled with emerging technologies, of which artificial and machine intelligence are just two, will present to society and the likely impact that these forces will have on work, communities, organizations and people. It documents the critical role education will play in both enabling these developments and in dealing with their aftermath. The policy argument is that this is the time to invest more in creative, imaginative and innovative approaches to education and that doing so is critical to ensuring the coming social and economic transitions are managed well. The book ends with what Seldon calls "Recommendations", but which are in fact action frameworks. A good read, challenging material and ideas presented simply, but well.
