Technology and Society: Building our Sociotechnical Future (Inside Technology)
"Technology and Societyis a highly readable book, mostly useful at the undergraduate level for its applied focus on future and values. The different textual genres serve well the ambition to make STS perspectives relevant in policy and in sociocultural negotiations about technopolitics.Technology and Societywill encourage its audience to become concerned about its global sociotechnical future, and hopefully to feel empowered for this task." Isabelle Dussauge Technology and Culture"Johnson and Wetmore's collection of papers on the interplay between technology and society is the most comprehensive I've seen, exposing just how rich, complex, multidimensional, and vital that interplay actually is. Be prepared for quite an intellectual ride!"Wm. A. Wulf, Department of Computer Science, University of Virginia, and President Emeritus, National Academy of Engineering
