Technology and the Character of Contemporary Life - A Philosophical Enquiry (Borgmann Albert)(Paperback)
EAN: 9780226066295
Blending social analysis and philosophy, Albert Borgmann maintains that technology creates a controlling pattern in our lives.

He argues that technology has served us as well in conquering hunger and disease, but that when we turn to it for richer experiences, it leads instead to a life dominated by effortless and thoughtless consumption. Borgmann does not reject technology but calls for public conversation about the nature of the good life.
