| Biography | Tom 'Ted' Stonier (29 April 1927 in Hamburg - 15 June 1999) was a biologist, philosopher, information theoretist and pacifist.
Stonier, began a campaign to transform our education system, linking it with the development of computers, which he saw as liberators of human talents. He recognised very early on that a combination of education and computers would unlock the door to the information society, and argued that education had to become the most important investment in the future of all societies.
He also founded the School of Peace Studies at Bradford University. |
