PREMISE

Humankind has lived and worked primarily in rural areas. But now, more than half of the globe's population, will be living in towns and cities.

Where trade and even countries were valued based on how much gold reserves they had in the past. In today’s context, trade depends on technology and the currency here is information. The millions of gigabytes of data that

MANIFESTO
Books undisputedly play an unparalleled role in shaping the destinies of both individuals and societies alike and nothing guides man more effectively than books.
