In this Podcast, Dale makes up for Michael's absence by presenting a theory about why our societies seem to be going through so much turmoil. From 1450-2000, we were living in the Book Age, which created a world and culture built on the innovations and cultural changes that followed the creation of the movable type printing press in 1450 by Johannes Gutenberg. Since sometime around 2000, we've moved out of the Book Age, and into a new Information Age. It's going to be every bit as disruptive, illuminating, exciting, dangerous, and unpredictable as the Book Age was in replacing the Age of the Church in 1450.
