Recensione

Praise for High Tech/High Touch:

"High Tech/High Touch is an 'a-ha' book of the first order. John Naisbitt, Nana Naisbitt, and Douglas Philips provide valuable insight into important technological, social, cultural, and artistic developments, which, while happening right under our noses, are blurred by an ever-accelerating world of our own creation."
--Carl Goodman, Curator of Digital Media at the American Museum of the Moving Image

"John Naisbitt, Nana Naisbitt, and Douglas Philips's take on artists' responses to technology is insightful and precise. Not only have they pinpointed some of the most innovative artists working today, but their understanding of their work is completely original. A refreshing change of pace from most discussions about art."
--Dan Cameron, Senior Curator, New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York City

"This is an important and troubling book.  Naisbitt and his co-authors have described in powerful detail the dark side of technology and its impact on our lives in the twenty-first century."
--Stephen Rhinesmith, author of A Manager's Guide to Globalization

Megatrends:

"In such turbulent times, we prize those among us who see clearly.  John Naisbitt offers a dramatic, convincing view on the changes already under way.  This is a book for everyone who wants a sense of the near future."
--Marilyn Ferguson, author of The Aquarian Conspiracy

Megatrends 2000:

"Thought-provoking . . . most persuasive . . . will carry us into the twenty-first century."
--Business Week

"A magnificent journey into the future for America and mankind."
--Jack Kemp
