SYNOPSIS
The real challenges of tomorrow are represented by innovative technologies, state-of-the-art tools, and above all, new and evolving organisational models set to make a dramatic impact, such as la Wikinomics, BIM, 3D Printing, Blockchain Technology, i bitcoin, Smart Contracts and Exponential Organisations.
However, the undeniable cultural revolution on the horizon is professional collectivism -- "Collaborative Engineering" is a concept that addresses the shift from project work undertaken by individual professionals to peer cooperation between professionals qualified in the highest specialisations.
This book is the perfect synthesis of Maurizio Boi's lucid, intelligent and attentive analysis of the future of the profession, Patrizia Boi's creative literary approach, and the wonderful photography of Sergio Pessolano depicting diverse peoples living around the world. The result sheds light on the new professional figures engaged in Engineeringᵑ and provides an insightful analysis of their future roles.

Sergio Pessolano, from Rome, is a photographer born in 1956. In the 1970s, while still a young medical student, he photographed the protests during the wave of terrorism in Italy at the time - the so-called "Years of Lead" - with passionate engagement. In his mature phase, he decided to dedicate himself exclusively to ethnic and geographic reportage and his experiences have culminated in the book 'Fragments of a World (published by La Camera Verde). His photography has taken him to more than thirty countries. His images mostly portray faces, eyes, gazes, wrinkled countenances and bright looks, but also places, environments and the artwork of nature and human endeavour, depicting the beauty of the world's most colourful and fascinating cultures.
