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.

    Meet one of the worlds most reknowned Futurists and pick his Brain!

    The Third Wave Perspective is applied to New World situations and reveals a stunning twist of events in coming years that will revolutionize the way wealth is created in the 3rd Wave REAL-World! Dramatic events are expected and you need to know what they are and how they will unfold. Tofler takes his analysis to the next level laying out possible scenarios and spelling out the terms of technology in the new world order. Politics has not kept up with Technology and is failing fast. Don't be left out! Those who read this book will have a distinctive advantage over all those who don't, no matter how well educated they are.

    My Favorite Author, Be sure to read all of Alvin Tofler's works.

    I love Toffler's ideas and his writing style. I feel like I got everything I was going to get out of this book about two thirds of the way in. Nonetheless, I finished it. Toffler may be a little too optimistic, but at least he frequently qualifies that optimism.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Insights every voter should comprehend
    Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    Alvin Toffler always has the gift of explaining complex issues in a clear understandable fashion. This is a book that every US voter should read to cast an intelligent vote for all contenders for public office. Sadly I think if we took a poll we would be shocked at how few Congress people have ever read it. This book would go a long way to educating the sound bite so called Right and the ranting Tea Party to the reality of the current global political and economic situation. It would also go far to educate the Leftist side of the electorate. Understanding what he put forth in this and his previous books would insure an intelligent vote rather than continuing with uneducated, emotional votes. This is a book that should be read in 12th grade in all public high schools.

    I have not finished the book yet; however, it is just what I have come to expect from the Tofflers. Their insights have helped me tremendously throughout my lifetime and become my religion of sorts as I make my way through the world! I am always especially and remarkably astounded at the breadth and versatility of their inventory of analogies and real world references from so many different perspectives, genres, points of view, and physical anomalies which are so easy to relate to whenever they pop up in the text.

    I look forward with great enthusiasm and anticipation to every new work they publish!

    Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    I first read "Creating A New Civilization" by the Tofflers, which was written in 1995 with me reading it in 2013....their predictions about the future were so freakingly accurate that I wanted to learn more and as an engineer I really like the details. This book provides me with those details that the engineer in me needs, but more than that I hope my fellow human beings discovers the works of the Tofflers soon and we can ALL live in a better world...TODAY! And so now I feel after reading this book that the future of humanity looks very bright and I would LOVE to possibly someday meet these clearly GREAT human beings in person one day! :)

    The hardcover was installed upside down but I won't judge it by its cover. I liked reading it because it tugged me back from my day-to-day mindset and forced my attention on the greater view. It reminded me that congress is bent on giving away our personal online preferences instead of giving us the option to sell them as our personal wealth. That we are not represented at all.

    The times, they are a changing. There's something going on here and you don't know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones? But if you want to know, there's probably no better way to start than by reading Revolutionary Wealth. With Toffler and Marshall McLuhan, you have a good introduction to the current world. Toffler provides a viewpoint that comprehends both the Teabaggers and the Sanders supporters (which are part of the frightened reaction to the same stresses). I can't recommend Revolutionary Wealth enough. It has become my go-to book to give.
