A couple nice early reviews of Future Perfect have come in over the past few weeks: Publishers Weekly calls it "fascinating and compelling" and says "Johnson’s thought-provoking ideas steer us steadily into the future." (Full review here.) The Kirkus review is not online yet, but they call it a "thought-provoking, hope-inspiring manifesto." And it's made a bunch of top fall books lists, which is always nice. The tour is shaping up nicely, and I'll have more info on specific dates and appearances in the next week or so.
Almost as exciting: I received the final copies in the mail last week, and the cover is an unmissable orange:
WOW THAT'S AN ORANGE COVER. It fairly jumps in one's cart!

Both coursera and MIT have same goal which is to educate more people through online courses they offer. Coursera only offers a more convenient and clear set of courses, students could choose from that's making it better compared to MIT. If I am still a student, I will surely grab the opportunity to enroll in these free online courses. Instead of partying, I will spend my time in learning more about people and life in general.

Mr. Johnson, I watched with interest the 2011 animated introduction to your book, 'Where good ideas come from', and am interested to find out who did the animation work for you.
Thank you!

So diversity trumps ability. Then why are spending so much money on education? We should fire all the professors and teachers and just let the students network.
Also, how many high school drop outs do you need to design a fusion reactor?

Bryant suggested that playing pro basketball for nearly two decades is a major mental challenge.
"I think it's always the mental part because physically you know what you have to do whether it's a knee injury or an ankle injury, http://www.retrojordan4bred.com whatever it is, you make those adjustments physically, you change your regimen a little bit, you do physical therapy," Bryant said. "The mentality of preparing year in and year out, it's going on 17 years and every off-season has been more work than the regular season, so it's a lot of work."
