James Martin will be talking about his new book ‘The Meaning of the 21st Century’ at lunchtime on 26 September 2006, in the Wills Memorial Building in the University of Bristol.
The Wired Society, which James published in 1977, contained remarkably accurate and timely descriptions of the use of computers and the Internet 25 years later. Martin is well known for the accuracy of his predictions about high technology and its impact on modern society.
Last year he founded the James Martin 21st Century School at Oxford University which aims to identify, research and find solutions to the biggest challenges facing humanity in the next hundred years. His new book looks at these challenges and the possible solutions.
