Questioning technology

by Andrew Feenberg

In this extraordinary introduction to the philosophy of technology, Andrew Feenberg argues that technological design is central to the social and political structure of modern societies. In his lucid and engaging style, Feenberg shows that technology is a medium of daily life. Every major technical change reverberates at countless levels: economic, political, religious, and cultural. If we continue to see the social and technical domains as being separate then we are essentially denying an integral part of our existence and our place in a democratic society. -- from back cover.
