Tom Peters on Science

"The word 'unique' is absurdly overused. But every now and then something truly 'unique' does come along. I believe the World Science Forum is as important a public event as any we've had in recent times--certainly, because of its focus, more on target than, say, Davos. We clearly live in a science-driven world--and we ain't seen nothin' yet. While many execs might generally acknowledge that, they nonetheless fail to dig deep enough, and in a comprehensive enough way, into the coming monumental impact of a passel of simultaneous science revolutions. Consider the World Science Forum an historic event---a short immersion in our most important subject matter, with an astonishingly high share of the planet's very best teachers and researchers in one place. Unique? For once there's no hesitancy in the reply: Yes!"
