Education Automation

Comprehensive Learning for Emergent Humanity

R. Buckminster Fuller

Buckminster Fuller’s prophetic 1962 book, Education Automation, brilliantly anticipated the need to rethink learning in light of a dawning revolution in informational technology – “upcoming major world industry.” Along with other essays on education, including “Breaking the Shell of Permitted Ignorance”, “Children: the True Scientists”, and “Mistake Mystique”, this volume presents a powerful approach for preparing ourselves to face epochal changes on spaceship earth: “whether we are going to make it or not… is really up to each one of us; it is not something we can delegate to the politicians – what kind of world are you really going to have?”
