Extra informatie - R. Buckminster Fuller (1895a 1983) was an architect, engineer, geometrician, cartographer, philosopher, futurist, inventor of the famous geodesic dome, and one of the most brilliant thinkers of his time. For more than five decades, he set forth his comprehensive perspective on the world's problems in numerous essays, which offer an illuminating insight into the intellectual universe of this renaissance man. These texts remain surprisingly topical even today, decades after their initial publication. Buckminster Fuller's prophetic 1962 book Education Automation brilliantly anticipated the need to rethink learning in light of a dawning revolution in informational technology a upcoming major world industry. Along with other essays on education, including Breaking the Shell of Permitted Ignorance, Children: the True Scientists and Mistake Mystique this volume presents a powerful approach for preparing ourselves to face epochal changes on spaceship earth: whether we are going to make it or not... is really up to each one of us; it is not something we can delegate to the politicians a what kind of world are you really going to have?
