Encore: 'Future Shock' 40 Years Later

By Martin Kaste
Published June 30, 2016 at 1:25 PM PDT

Future Shock by Alvin Toffler was a huge sensation when it was published in 1970. The book perfectly captured the angst of that time and prepared society for more changes to come. Toffler died on Monday at the age of 87. This story originally aired on July 26, 2010, on All Things Considered.
