From chapter 2 in the book:


In any industrial ecosystem, novel and new things constantly appear as a consequence of the desire for companies and individuals to gain an advantage over others.  Those things that are useful will be copied.  They will spread until the once novel and new becomes commonplace.  Yesterday’s wonders are destined to become today’s discounted special offers.  The magic of the first electric light bulb, the first computer and the first telephone are now an expected norm.  We no longer marvel at such things but instead we would reel in utter shock if presented with a workplace that did not provide them.  Competition and the desire to gain an advantage not only creates change, it spreads it and forces companies to adopt it.[1]
