Overview

Second printing. Closed tear to rear of jacket. Black boards. Previous owner's bookplate to pastedown. Pen mark on title page. Otherwise clean. Groundbreaking book that explores how rapid technological and societal changes affect individuals and entire cultures. The central idea is that the world is changing so quickly—through advances in technology, shifts in work and family structures, and the pace of everyday life—that people are struggling to cope. Toffler calls this psychological state "future shock", comparing it to a kind of cultural or emotional overload.
