Foundations: Society, Challenge and Change (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781550770766)

In today's fast-changing world, people who are technically trained but lack communication skills and a broad-based knowledge are at a distinct disadvantage. Yet, there is no easy and quick way to obtain a 'general' education. It takes time - listening, reading and thinking. It is this process that this book seeks to set in motion. The selections in this book provide a lively and interesting introduction to many key issues in science and technology, the social sciences and the arts and humanities. By reading this material, thinking about it and discussing it with friends and classmates, students will begin to see how these issues affect their own personal lives and how they can better prepare for their future.
