"Published originally in 1973, Daniel Bell's The Coming of Post-Industrial Society was the first book to identify the structural changes in American society leading to the Information Age.".

"Decades later, the term, the idea and the concept of the post-industrial society have assimilated into common usage, employed by the Unabomber, Margaret Thatcher and President Clinton. Yet the concept and its ramifications have often been misunderstood and in this anniversary re-issue of the original book, Professor Bell has added a new 30,000-word Foreword exploring the future developments of post-industrial society."--BOOK JACKET.
