Biodiversity and a digital education

morreale Friday 24 of February, 2012
Biologist E. O. Wilson is working on a digital text book on biology. It's really a prototype for a digital education. It's a fabulous idea too. Imagine a tablet that contained everything you needed to know for a undergraduate and graduate degrees in any subject. You could pass it down to future generation in the family. If success, it will be disruptive. There is every indication that the book will be successful given the samples on the website. With Harrison Ford and David Attenborough as narrators, I can't wait. E. O. Wilson is known as the Lord of the Ants for his work on the book The Ants and is also the name of a very good PBS documentary. You might say ants developed one of the first social networks.
