What follows is an exploration of the way in which we might structure ourselves to survive the new century beautifully. It considers what we can do to engineer structures for the world in which we are to live, not simply as steel and concrete, but structures for work, learning, social structures and structures for thinking. It takes as its central theme the notion that as technology opens more and more doors, there will be a gathering need for people with ideas to direct it toward the common good. Although this sounds pious, it could be incredibly fertile territory for broad-minded engineers and specialists alike, a maturing of our role on the planet.
