Description	This is a series of articles written by Peter Drucker for different issues of Harper's Magazine, republished together. In the section titled "The Coming Labor Shortage", Drucker discusses how the changes in population and education will affect the job market and employment in the future. He believes the best method to deal with the challenges that will arise is social innovation. The second segment is called "The Promise of Automation" and in it, Drucker explains that the "automation revolution" is already here. He believes it will have as big an impact as mass-production. However, Drucker says switching over to full automation right away would be bad for business, so it will be a gradual change that managers and workers will be able to adjust to. Part III is "The New Tycoons" and is about how the people who hold the power in businesses now are not the "robber barons of yesteryear", but rather middle class workers and "fiduciary investors". Drucker believes they currently have a "hands-off" attitude, and the restraint is ideal at this time, but will need to adjust in the future. The fourth and final piece is about "Eleven Coming Issues in Politics". Drucker goes through a list, and explains several points of contention, that he believes will be what determines the governmental policies of the near future. The front cover has the name Ron Greenwood handwritten in the top left corner.
