Publisher's Summary
Two renowned investment advisors and authors of the best seller The Great Reckoning bring to light both currents of disaster and the potential for prosperity and renewal in the face of radical changes in human history as we move into the next century. The Sovereign Individual details strategies necessary for adapting financially to the next phase of Western civilization.
Few observers of the late-20th century have their fingers so presciently on the pulse of the global political and economic realignment ushering in the new millennium as do James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg. Their bold prediction of disaster on Wall Street in Blood in the Streets was borne out by Black Tuesday. In their ensuing best sellar, The Great Reckoning, published just weeks before the coup attempt against Gorbachev, they analyzed the pending collapse of the Soviet Union and foretold the civil war in Yugoslavia and other events that have proved to be among the most searing developments of the past few years.
In The Sovereign Individual, Davidson and Rees-Mogg explore the greatest economic and political transition in centuries - the shift from an industrial to an information-based society. This transition, which they have termed "the fourth stage of human society", will liberate individuals as never before, irrevocably altering the power of government. This outstanding book will replace false hopes and fictions with new understanding and clarified values.

Brilliant
Worth reading over and over again. As accurate today as it was when it was written 25 years ago.

Amazing
I'll now be buying a copy of this book so I can re-read it and revisit frequently over the next 10 to 20 years. Simply amazing foresight from the author, having had so many of the things he predicted already come true. It was also like the author knew Blockchain technology and Bitcoin was coming, even though it was far from being created when he wrote this book.

Incredible
Not exactly the world Bitcoin (as described by the white paper) will give us but damn near close. Surprisingly prescient, highly recommended.

Good read
slightly capitalistic view of the way things work but very forward looking. Hard to believe it was written in the 90's!

not bad , 60% agreed with what they predicted
fails to mention that ai will be there to serve us. some of us will have no jobs but free to pursue our spiritual needs.
very competitive out look on success and the world.
success is subjective.
the 1% won't be able to hold on to everything
very capitalist book, typical of American culture I believe and author doesn't question his own ideas. Great historical analysis and comparison to current events
