Toffler, I believe, is so caught up with the little puddle of Campus Leaders in 1975-76 our present and immediately impending problems that he seems to have forgotten the distant and mysterious past and the measureless horizons of the future of man. He cannot put things in perspective and consequently cannot take a calm look at our present circumstances. Measured against the ocean of infinity, we can gain a perspective of what and where our priorities should be.

" Toffler's book does not have that sense of "eternity." Future Shock is a book more about the present and not too distant future; it is about immediate, not ultimate concerns. It is a book not so much about the spirit of man, but about men's possesions and how they are dealing with them.
