Produktbeschreibung
Modern industrial society is an experiment with a brief past and an uncertain future. In less than two centuries, technology has transformed the globe and given the human race the power to realize its highest ideals or destroy itself.

"Questioning Technology" convinces us that it is vital that we learn more about technology the better to live with it and manage it.
