Really enjoyed the author's style of switching back and forth between deep historical dive and musings on current situation. Flows really well. Went back to re-read for main prescriptive points around current trends in education, and got this: We need to offer more kinds of education to adults who have started their careers as well as to companies that need their staff to get better at something...If we get this wrong it could be disastrous...the risk of population collapse may be reduced by promoting individual learning and innovation Wish the author could have offered more guidance here to his opinion on leading educational programs, especially WRT the modern day corollary to the cavalry sword/tank metaphor in a few important industries. The finance take is interesting, but outdated, mainly discussing floor to electronic trading (70s, 80s). Otherwise great article, thanks for the share.
