Insights every voter should comprehend
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.

My favorite author of all time!
A terrific explanation of the forces driving change throughout the world. One two three four five six seven eight nine......dear lord, really nine more words required. Smells like second wave thinking to me!

Revolutionary Wealth
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.

Revolutionary Wealth
It make me impatient when people worry about reading and learning how the future of wealth will be. Possibly, they need encouragement of the author who may be forgotten but the fruit of his/her encouragement remain.Before the history of future suprising us, Alvin and Heidi Toffler give a positive expression of reality in a third wave world, which may often seem to be filled with negative and resistance from vested interests.THE REVOLUTIONARY WEALTH provides us with powerful new tools for thinking about and preparing for our future.ByAlhaj Hammad A.

The Future Of Humanity Looks BRIGHT!!!
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! :)

Changing times.
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.

Outstanding reading! Just What I have come to expect from Alvin and Heidi Toffler each time.
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!

Thought provoking but much too long
The revolutionary wealth comes from the knowledge economy that is the third wave of man's economic development, following the agricultural and industrial waves. Being based on knowledge rather than consumable resources the knowledge wealth is available to all and almost inexhaustible. At least that is the authors' thesis. There is an interesting discussion of prosumerism - a sophisticated term for DIY - where a product is produced by the consumer. There are many, indeed too many, examples. Why do such books have to be four times longer than necessary. The length smothers the importance of its message.
