"Gordon, business and education consultant, challenges policy makers to address the anticipated shortage of highly educated and technically trained workers, which he attributes in large part to technology growth, globalization, and baby-boomer retirements. He describes a cultural lag that has led to "techno-peasants" who drop out of high school, have outdated career skills, and seem destined for low-paying jobs, and a business environment that focuses too much on short-term profits, outsourcing, and importing temporary workers. To produce a more educated and technically skilled workforce, he recommends a cultural change in which parents are more involved in their children's education. He also discusses how community involvement in education can be enhanced with the development of NGOs that involve businesses in local community organizations such as chambers of commerce and service clubs to guide students to new careers. A wide variety of schools such as the Fargo Skills and Technology Training Center and corporations such as Hewlett-Packard have aided technical education. The book includes numerous examples of education programs and tables comparing American education to that of other countries. See also Gordon's Literacy in America (CH, Oct'03, 41-1049), coauthored with Elaine Gordon. The 2010 Meltdown is especially useful for business professionals, policy makers, and educators. Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections."- Choice, "The book made me THINK about how we as Canadians are preparing, or NOT preparing, for the inevitable. . . . It was one of the best books I have read lately to help explain why the War for Talent is imminent." - Canadian Career Information Association, "Ed Gordon, a business author whose books are filled with examples, illustrations, and explanations that flow from extensive research, has done it again. In this thought-provoking book, Gordon lays out the critical situation employers will face - do face - in finding and holding employees who have the education and training to get the job done....You can open this book to practically any page and be instantly drawn into the story. Before I read the volume cover-to-cover, I flipped through the pages to just take a sneak peek at what was there. Reading just a paragraph or looking at organization wasn't enough. I wanted more. I was pulled in to keep reading. Gordon brings this issue to life. Recommended for business leaders, educators, human resource professionals, politicians, and enlightened citizens who are dedicated to making a difference for the generations that will follow us."

Despite some of the bleak findings and comments, Gordon's book is hopeful. He calls for action to avoid a major meltdown in our work force and describes model programs involving partnerships between educators, employers and community organizations that pave the way for others who want to work for change." - The Milwaukee Sentinel, "Whether you work in a business, service sector, nonprofit organization, governmental agency or school setting, Gordon's book prompts critical thinking about where we are headed and what we need to be both discussing and taking action upon in order to prevent a 2010 meltdown of our workforce and our economy. . . .
