OPEN: HOW WE’LL LIVE, WORK AND LEARN IN THE FUTURE

Book ID/图书代码： 06580013B64519

English Summary/英文概要： What makes a global corporation give away its prized intellectual property? Why are Ivy League universities allowing anyone to take their courses for free? What drives a farmer in rural Africa to share his secrets with his competitors?

A collection of hactivists, hobbyists, forum-users and maverick leaders are leading a quiet but unstoppable revolution. They are sharing everything they know, and turning knowledge into action in ways that were unimaginable even a decade ago. Driven by technology, and shaped by common values, going ‘open’ has transformed the way we live.

Going open is also confronting our formal institutions by turning conventional wisdom on its head. Give away what you used to sell. Work where and when you choose to. Take kids out of school, so they can learn. Faced with an irreversible shift in our social lives, it’s not so much a question of if our workplaces, schools and colleges go open, but when.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 如果一家名誉全球的企业决定公布曾为其赢得多项奖项的知识产权，如果常春藤盟校将允许所有人免费试听他们的课程，如果一名来自南非的农民决定与他的竞争者们分享他成功背后的秘密，那么你认为这一切背后原因何在？

一群黑客活动分子、业余爱好人群、论坛常驻客以及标新立异者齐聚一堂，意欲默默地引领一场谁也无法阻止的革命。他们相互分享自己所熟知的一切，以一种数十年来无人敢想的方式将知识转化为行动。科技的驱动与常识的影响改变着人们，“开放”改变着我们的生活方式。

然而与此同时，“开放”同样遭遇到了正规机构中那些所谓传统智慧的阻挠。赠送哪些曾经你贩卖的物品，在你自己选择是时间和地点工作，将孩子们带离学校，这样就可以让他们学到真正的东西。面对社会生活中的种种难以抵御的变迁，我们所面临的不再是单纯意义上的工作场所、学校以及大学开放性问题，而是何时它们将从真正意义上开放。（DC）
