The Second Curve by Charles Handy
His work on broader issues and trends such as Beyond Certainty has changed the way we view society. He even asks whether we should rethink our roles in life as students, parents, workers and voters and what the aims of an ideal society of the future should be.
The bracing manifesto of a forward-looking radical.. The Second Curve successfully channels the energy and enthusiasm of the younger generation, in whom Handy places great hope ... Handy’s prescience over the decades has earned him the right to dabble and, given his record, you would not want to bet against some of his radical ideas coming true. -- Andrew Hill * Financial Times *
