One is reassuringly familiar. It is a more efficient version of what we have today. The second is transformational--a gradual replacement of professionals by increasingly capable systems. Based on the authors' in-depth research of more than ten professions, and illustrated by numerous examples from each, this ... is the first book to assess and question the relevance of the professions in the 21st century."--Cover ER -
