Shrinking the Technosphere (eBook, ePUB)

Getting a Grip on Technologies that Limit our Autonomy, Self-Sufficiency and Freedom

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The harmful side of even relatively benign technology is plain to see, but is hardly ever discussed. This book is critical of many aspects of technology, but it intends to evaluate each aspect of technology based on a harm/benefit tradeoff, showing that the best technologies are naturelike and are not harmful at all.
