I cited some of Toffler's concepts in my master's thesis.
The conservative professors had to be sold on his comments to get them to sign their approval.
There was so much going on when Toffler's book came out. Future Shock -- was being shown via flick in schools (e.g., "shock issues" -- the earth was ending, recycling would save the planet, we were all going to be nuked off the planet, men evil/women good) - I can understand your conservative professors' concern. But OTOH, their demand of you; made you think good and hard, no?
