Features: In the early 1980s, Toffler's The Third Wave shook the newly opened China in the form of books and television, turning terms like "futurology," "civilizational transformation," and "information civilization" into buzzwords across the land. It can be said that The Third Wave significantly bridged China and the world. This book is a futurology work completed under Toffler's guidance. It argues that the foundation of civilization lies in the wealth system, and the transformation of civilization is primarily manifested in the emergence and growth of new wealth systems. Currently, humanity is in the transition phase from industrial civilization to network civilization, with the new wealth system—e-commerce—becoming the key to competition for every country, every enterprise, and every individual. Whoever holds an advantage in e-commerce will own the future. The key to e-commerce is not technology but mindset and lifestyle. It provides equal and fresh-start opportunities for all nations, all enterprises, and all individuals. The future's destiny depends on today's reflection, choice, and action. For general readers, this book is not only a work of futurology but also a popular introductory textbook and practical guide to e-commerce.
