About Georges Anderla
- Georges Anderla (March 27, 1921 in Prague - April 26, 2005 in Antibes) was a Czech-born French economist.
- While working for the OECD in 1973, he created a statistical model of the accumulation of human knowledge.
- He began by defining the known technology in 1 AD as a unit and showed that it had doubled in 1500, doubled again in 1750 and again in 1900.
- According to Anderla the next doubling only took fifty years, then ten, seven and finally six leading up to the year 1973.
- If Anderla is correct, the amount of human knowledge in 1973 was 128 times greater than in the year 1 AD.
