From the Back Cover:
This book examines our often conflicting attitudes toward nuclear weapons, biological technologies, pollution, Third World development, automation, social medicine, and industrial decline. It disputes the common idea that technology is 'value-free' and shows that its development and use are conditioned by many factors - political and cultural as well as economic and scientific.
