The Age of Discontinuity
How come Peter Drucker has so much good sense and perspective, and still remains so cheerful? Traditionally considerations such as hisーeconomics, organizations, the futureーturn a prophet's soul terrible and dark or at least partially wiggy. The only other intact floater on this ocean I know of is Marshall McLuhan. You sense that both of them have a backyard in their mind that resides somewhere else, some time else. (It would be worth pursuing this. How To Think Big and Stay Sane.)
The Age of Discontinuity takes notice of the remarkable continuity of the last 50 years in building on the technological breakthroughs of the Victorian era. Now, says Drucker, we are in for some hard changes, particularly around new technologies (of information, materials, oceans, megalopolis), global economics, and redistribution of responsibility in large organizations.
