Makers

I've total mixed feelings about this book. From one point of view I'm a believer on Makers.. But from another point of view I cannot accept the idea that the entire population will adopt this positioning.
Albeit Chris Anderson understands he is talking about niches and not the full spectrum of social life, a lot of his arguments are controversial because sometimes he assumes the entire world working in that same model.

A book all of us worried about the future of work, technology, and creativity should read, but with a lot of caution.
