Book still in a good condition. >>> The first wave (Agrarian Society) lasted for thousands of years; the second wave (Industrial society) lasted for close to 300 years and now the third wave ("information society")- started in 1960s in U.S.- has more or less spread across the whole globe. Even though the book is written in 1980s, most part of it is still valid today. What I really liked about it is how the author tries to interconnect seemingly unrelated events in different fields like tech, sociology, politics, environment & economics with linkages of sound & convincing arguments.
I suggest, read this book not mere for its content but also for the style & structure.The book describes the path along which small changes occurring in diverse fields-each inspired by its own characteristic need- leads to the rise of civilization which itself shapes the future of many human generations.
