About this book

Twenty-first-century technology is an ever-expanding, powerful force in virtually every aspect of human life and every corner of the globe. So much of modern technology has resulted in positive improvements in communication, work, health, and other domains. Technology's promises and possibilities for the future are often glowing. But it is one thing for technology to function as a tool serving human purpose and flourishing, and quite another for it to be granted the position of unquestioned master. All technologies deserve to be questioned: What are their costs, trade-offs, and potential or real negative impact? And how do we create limits and controls for technological invasion when these would be wise and necessary? Questioning Technology with Jacques Ellul addresses these questions in both the big picture and in their relevance to specific arenas, such as art, politics, work, and religion--with voices from not just the academy but also the workplace and society.
