- ith them. They’re people like you. They’ve had enough, and, rather than waiting for permission, they’re rolling up their sleeves, getting together with friends and neighbours, and doing something about it. Whether they start small or big, they’re finding that just doing stuff can transform their neighbourhoods and their lives. The Power of Just Doing Stuff argues that this shift represents the seeds of a new economy – the answer to our desperate search for a new way forward – and at its heart is people deciding that change starts with them. Communities worldwide are already modelling a more local economy rooted in place, in well-being, in entrepreneurship and in creativity. And it works.Praise for The Power of Just Doing Stuff “Once upon a time it was tempting to mock the idea of a ‘Transition town’ or even transition itself. Rob Hopkins is a truly original thinker who has not only given that concept meaning but has put it into practice in a way that now influences individuals and communities in many parts of the world. The essential proposition is not only that we have to adapt our way of life to meet the enormous environmental challenges that we face but that it is quite possible – and no less practically to the point – a stimulating and enjoyable process as well. IF ever there was an idea whose time has come, this is it. Rob Hopkins’ book is a truly unique piece of work that anyone who cares about our future in this densely populated and threatened world should read. It offers original thought and clear analysis. It also combines realism and hope”. Jonathan Dimbleby, writer and broadcaster. ‘From What Is to What If’ reviewed in Times Educational Supplement He asks us: “What if school nurtured young imaginations?” Of course, we’d all love to believe that imagination is fostered within the classroom, yet, as Hopkins highlights, “26 percent [of children] feel as though they do not need to use their imagination for their study or schoolwork”. He then provides numerous examples of where imagination is being fostered and nurtured, such as in The Green School in Copenhagen or the School of the Possible in France. By the end of the book, the “utopian ideal” that was set out in Hopkins’ introduction seems somewhat less distant, somewhat more achievable, and all it really takes is a bit of imagination. …

- oice and video, and certain classes of sensors and actuators. As the number & diversity of network-connected devices grow exponentially, however, it will be impossible to forecast bandwidth demand, routing patterns, or quality-of-service requirements. As a result we will need smarter and higher-capacity optical networks that are extremely adaptable to changing bandwidth requirements. Designing systems where users and applications have a continuous presence on the network, able to seamlessly move across multiple networks without interuption - even enter and exit the enterprise network or the residential network and cross over to the carrier network - therefore becomes one of the major challenges.IN TODAY'S HYPERCONNECTED WORLD, CONVENIENCE IS [unfortunately] THE ULTIMATE CURRENCY of THE still BURGEONING HIDDEN PERSUADERS …
