The Future of the Professions by Richard Susskind
The Future of the Professions predicts the decline of today's professions and introduces the people and systems that will replace them. In an internet-enhanced society, we will neither need nor want doctors, teachers, accountants, architects, the clergy, lawyers, and many others, to work as they did in the 20th century.
Richard Susskind and Daniel Susskind's recent work, The Future of the Professions: How Technology Will Transform the Work of Human Experts, is a fascinating and very thought-provoking book * Jonathan Westover, Utah Valley University, Sociological Research Online *
