520 "In the next three decades, Milton Ezrati argues that key
societal and fiscal changes will affect the economies of
our nations at large: an ever increasing pool of retirees
will burden relatively diminished workforces, slowing the
pace of growth and straining public as well as private
finances. But the future is nonetheless brighter than the
media would have you believe. Many sources of relief are
available, most of which will create exciting
opportunities during these coming thirty years, even as
they force radical change, such as: The increasing
participation of women in the workplace Generally longer
working lives Changes in not just what economies produce
but how they produce Increasingly flexible labor-
management relations Though the aging trend is often
described in the most dour of terms, Ezrati proves that
the changes it brings will offer exciting prospects and
expanded opportunities. America has the capability to lead
the globe in these changes, and embrace the forthcoming
paradigm shift. Thirty Tomorrows demonstrates clearly and
engagingly how with considerable imagination, effort, and
flexibility from government, business, and the general
population these efforts will yield great rewards"--
