Again this afternoon we have Dr. Lewis Perelman from Virginia, John Puma from Mount Vernon, John Berenyi from New York and all over the world, Dr. Bob Flower from Bronxville, and Guy Fairstein who joins us for the first time from White Plains, NY.

He later earned his doctoral degree in administration, planning, and policy from Harvard, where his studies focused on sustainable economic development. Dr. Lewis Perelman has over thirty years of professional experience focused on the processes of innovation, sustainability, and resilience—as a consultant, analyst, author, publisher, and teacher. In 1992 he gained renown for his best-selling book “School’s Out”, which anticipated much of the revolution that the Internet and information technology would end up causing in learning, work, and the keys to business success. Since 2001, Dr. Perelman also has been actively engaged in work on homeland security, for the federal Homeland Security Institute and other organizations. Recently, Dr. Perelman has been working on the connections between infrastructure resilience, security, and sustainability as a consultant to several associations, research institutes, and public agencies, and as a Senior Fellow of the Institute for Regulatory Science in Alexandria, VA.
