	Discussing War & Anti-War with Alvin Toffler
		Alvin Toffler: There are number of issues in Afghanistan before we can talk about fighting that we need to understand.
		In April of 1982, authors Alvin and Heidi Toffler were handed a document called AirLand Battle, written by Brigadier General Don Morelli and other commanders of the US Army Training and Doctrine Command (or TRADOC for short) located in Fort Monroe, VA.
		Their goal, Toffler says, was to move away from Second Wave, industrial mass-warfare models, to Third Wave methods of warfare, “something more aligned with what was actually beginning to happen in the economy, in the business community and elsewhere.”

	Amazon.com: Business Process Management (BPM): The Third Wave: Books: Howard Smith,Peter Fingar
		Over two decades ago in his blockbuster book The Third Wave, Alvin Toffler wrote that we stood on the edge of a new age of synthesis.
		This book can be summed up quote from page 70 of the text: "long on talk and short on results." I was very disappointed with the investment of any money in this hyped book.
		For if the contents of this book are to be believed, third wave BPM is the answer to many desperate pleas from the technical and managerial camps who have suffered through the first two waves associated with Taylorism and reengineering.

	Power (sociology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alvin Toffler's Powershift argues that the three main kinds of power are violence, wealth, and knowledge with other kinds of power being variations of these three (typically knowledge).
		The seminal work of Steven Lukes 'Power: A radical view' (1974) was developed from a talk he was once invited to give in Paris.
		Because power operates both relationally and reciprocally, sociologists speak of the balance of power between parties to a relationship: all parties to all relationships have some power: the sociological examination of power concerns itself with discovering and describing the relative strengths: equal or unequal, stable or subject to periodic change.

	HotWired: Intelligent Agent - "Gore and Gingrich: Twin Sons of Different Mothers" by Brock N. Meeks
		During a conference organized by Alvin and Heidi Toffler on "anticipatory democracy," Gore and Gingrich traded early visions of the "some day" type of information access that is now within our grasp.
		But when they talk technology, their ideas are a heartbeat apart - twin sons of different mothers.
		The differences in their approaches to technology policy exist chiefly in the logistical bump and grind of "how to get there from here." Or as Ross Perot, likes to say: "The Devil is in the details."
