Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The Triumph of Technology is taken from Lord Alec Broers' 2005 BBC Reith Lectures on the role and importance of technology in our lives. The lectures discuss the way technology has shaped life since the beginnings of civilization, explaining how we owe to technologists most of what drives our world today, how technologies develop, and the excitement of the modern creative process. There are some who believe that technology's future development should be controlled, and that it may already have gone too far, especially in areas such as the use of energy - something which has the potential to permanently harm our environment. Alec Broers argues that although we need to understand such dangers, and use technology wisely, it can improve our lives - that we must look to technology to solve many of the problems that threaten our planet. Included here are the complete lectures plus a new introduction and conclusion. Taken from the 2005 BBC Reith Lectures, and including a new introduction and conclusion, Alec Broers shows how technology drives our world today. Explaining how technologies emerged, he argues that if we use technology wisely it can improve our lives and provide solutions to current global problems. This item is printed on demand.
