FUTURE SHOCK. “In 1970, computers were still primitive, but the PC and the global internet were on the horizon. That year, Toffler published Future Shock, in which he argued that the rate of technological change would soon become so great that people would be left disoriented, disconnected and alienated, suffering the eponymous disease. Toffler argued that civilization was about to move from the industrial age to the superindustrial age – now more commonly known as the information age.””
