In his most recent book, renowned author Cass Sunstein offers an updated look at information sharing using commonly available Internet technology. The book explores how anyone can leverage tools such as wikis and open-source software to exchange ideas on a global scale, which Sunstein argues is vastly more effective than the localized "information cocoons" from which most personal, business and governmental decisions derive. The book also looks at "prediction markets," a pooling approach which combines the aggregate knowledge of many different people to make startingly accurate predictions.
Infotopia provides an enlightening overview of how information as we know it is quickly evolving. No longer the domain of an enlightened few, the collaboration of information is becoming the norm. Anyone who is looking for new ways to enhance knowledge sharing on Performance Excellence, or any topic, will appreciate the ideas introduced in the book.
