Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Post-Industrialism
But the general power to return to origins is an even greater matter; and what it needs is intellectual independence. Indeed, there is an un conscious truth ih the phrase of shallow people who talk of a man like Mr. Penty as if he were behind the times. In one sense he is behind the times; as we speak of a man being behind the scenes. The man behind the scenes is at the back of things and the beginning of things. He knows where the actors come from, and how the whole performance began. He has seen all the machinery.
