人力资本理论，即教育投资与个人和国家繁荣之间有直接关系的概念，在过去的50年里一直主导着教育和劳动力的公共政策。这本书描述了人力资本理论的发展以及为什么它变成了一场失败的革命。它概述了一种替代理论，该理论重新定义了智能机器时代的人力资本。新的人力资本拒绝了自动化和人工智能将导致有薪工作的终结的观点，但认为根本问题是缺乏提供有趣、有价值和有回报的机会的高质量工作。新的人力资本关系到生产力、可持续和包容性社会中个人福祉的未来前景。它还与一种日益增长的感觉有关，即资本主义正处于危机之中，学生和更广泛的劳动力感受到了这一点，在对当前现实进行冷静评估的同时，也对未来充满希望。
Human capital theory, the notion that there is a direct relationship between educational investment and individual and national prosperity, has dominated public policy on education and labor for the past fifty years. This book describes the development of human capital theory and why it has turned into a failed revolution. It outlines an alternative theory that re-defines human capital in an age of smart machines. The new human capital rejects the view that automation and AI will result in the end of waged work, but sees the fundamental problem as a lack of quality jobs offering interesting, worthwhile and rewarding opportunities. At stake in the new human capital are the future prospects for individual wellbeing in productive, sustainable and inclusive societies. It also connects with a growing sense that capitalism is in crisis, felt by students and the wider workforce, in offering a sober assessment of current realities at the same time as a sense of hope for the future.
