Amazing and thought provoking piece on "revolutionaries" in various realms of science and technology who are literally trying to change the world. This can be taken as a stand alone article, or as a suite of information - going deeper into the stories of "10 people who could change the world"; "15 Things We Wish Someone Would Invent"; and "15 People Who Changed the World. You can also look at a contrary point of view in "You Can't Predict Who Will Change The World." Worthwhile!

The theory is that research and the creation of ideas can/will change the world. The execution of the story is OK except that it's totally US centric and dominated by biotech and computers. This is all well and good but the adoption lag in most of these areas of research is a generation or two. There are people doing work now to implement what we already know who are much more likely to change the world than these who are bright, clever, and still researching (and who may each, in some sad way, fail to live up to this hype).

People meets Forbes. Story is pure fluff a filler must have a large news hole.

What an exciting topic from a business publication. Well presented, but 10 out of 10 world savers are working in the U.S.? Somewhat narrow focus.
