The post-industrial society's dimensions would include the spread of a knowledge class, the change from goods to services and the role of women. All of these would be dependent on the expansion of services in the economic sector and an increasing dependence on science as the means of innovating and organizing technological change.Bell prophetically stated in \u003ci\u003eThe Coming of the Post-Industrial Society\u003c\/i\u003e that we should expect \"... new premises and new powers, new constraints and new questions--with the difference that these are now on a scale that had never been previously imagined in world history.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDaniel Bell\u003c\/b\u003e is the Henry Ford II Professor of Social Sciences Emeritus at Harvard University and Scholar-in-Residence at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
