Continuous Evolution, again

Hi Gerard,

It's not only a question of knowledge. For instance, language and mathematics don't demand the same kind of intelligence...You can have both, of course. Besides, most people have every intelligence, but which is not so accurate in every field.
These tests don't treat memory, which is different from intelligence, but essential. You can have a good memory for a kind of topic and no memory for an other...

Muriel,

don't worry about computing ! Anywhere, we were not educated with the new technologies. What is evident for a child, today, can seem difficult for adults. Of course, computing can be very complicated. It dépends on the use.

Anyway, an intellectual is a person for whom simple problems seem insurmountable

Hi Muriel, Remy, everyone,

A book -French language- that was recently published (I hate when they don't publish any date) on the subject

-> Les changements induits par la révolution numérique
Another title: La métamorphose numérique, vers une société de la connaissance et de la coopération"

Not exactly continuous evolution as on the opposite, the authors declares our era is the 4th transformation of humanity (not less) after the creation of cities (1), the creation of Agriculture (2) and Industrial Revolution (3).
(nothing about the apparition of writing, about the discovery of printing, about the discovery of America...)
Wow!

Hi Gérard, Remy, everyone
It's very strange ! compared to the 4 transformations they are minimal then..

Hi Gérard ! hi Remy ! hi everyone !
Francis Jutand says that this new civilization will be based on knowledge and cooperation. I find that very interesting !

On the opposite, they consider Numeric Revolution as more important than the discovery of printing.

Too beautiful words...

Hi Gerard !
you mean "knowledge"and "cooperation"

what are you doing in this forum then ? posting subjects to make people think. Isn't that knowledge ? you are improving people's knowledge aren't you ? cooperation is teamwork and it is exactly what we are doing. We try to think about everything together
Of course numeric revolution has started.

Targetted words are: "this new civilization will be based on knowledge and cooperation."

It's easier to predict the past (and the present) than the future.

Hi Gérard ! Hi everyone
