& Quality of Life: Policy"For only a short time, in most countries, has the individual human had the right to trial by jury. To make humanity's chances for a fair trial better, all those testifying must swear 'to tell the truth, all the truth, and nothing but the truth.' But humans have learned scientifically that the exact truth can never be attained or told. We can reduce the degree of tolerated error, but we have learned physically, as Heisenberg discovered, that exactitude is prohibited, because most exquisite physical experiment has shown that 'the act of measuring always alters that which is measured.'

attractive to their prosperous residents, will no doubt continue to function
in that way; by contrast, Asian, Latin American, and Central American megacities
of 20 million inhabitants have become increasingly centers of poverty and
social collapse. Already, the sheer concentrations of people - 143,000
per square mile in Lagos, Nigeria, and 130,000 per square mile in Djakarta,
Indonesia, compared with New York's mere 11,400 per square mile - make
it inconceivable that their inhabitants will enjoy the benefits offered
by traditional European cities."Is it inconcievable? Or is it a failure of the imagination and our understanding of . . .
"The corporation of the Fourth Wave will be structured according to
a community model. Because the Fourth Wave in general will occur after
a shift in global consciousness, it will manifest many features that seem
unrealistic to us today; for example, the devaluation of money as the primary
motivator, the absence of hierarchy, and the elimination of external employee
evaluation."We will surf the Fourth wave in . . .
