A past persepctive

People are struggling to find new ways to describe the impact of the information age on today's society, and the speed of the changes we are seeing. Nothing in economic history has ever moved as fast as, or had a greater impact on us than the information age.
Right?
Not according to Austrian economist Peter Drucker (1909-2005). The Industrial Revolution, Drucker said, moved at least as fast in the same time span, and had probably an equal impact if not a greater one.
If history weren't so far in the past, it would be easier to keep it in perspective.
