Abstract

One of the key characteristics of the postindustrial society is the increasing educational and professional sophistication of the work force. This sophistication runs through all sectors of business and government — primary, secondary, tertiary and quarternary industries, though particularly through the last named service industries — and is encouraged by several of the other characteristics of the postindustrial society referred to below.
