      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Throughout history, the discovery of a new continent has always created substantial opportunities to create wealth. Today, the same opportunities are arising, not because of the discovery of a new physical continent but due to the emergence of an invisible continent transcending physical and national boundaries.

      This newly emerging invisible continent is more than just solely the Internet. It has four distinct dimensions:

      The interplay and interconnection of each of these four dimensions must be understood and taken into account, along with the requirements of the old economy, if long-term success in the invisible continent is to be achieved. The visible dimension of life will always exist. It will even continue to grow and improve. But its rate of growth will be dwarfed by the rate at which the other three dimensions grow.

      To prosper in the invisible continent in the years ahead, understanding must be translated into effective action. Only those who have an in-depth knowledge and affinity for all four dimensions will be able to move forward confidently. Each dimension has its own set of governing rules, its own set of formulae for success and its own distinctive requirements. Business and government leaders who ignore this forfeit their opportunity to stake a meaningful claim on the riches and rewards that will
