Science, Technology & Hominisations: Bridges to Belief - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book concerns the relationship of science/technology and human values. America is experiencing a cultural crisis unique in its history. That is to say, we live in a highly complex technical age, but very little correspondence exists between technology and the body of beliefs and customs that make up the culture. Moreover, those beliefs and customs are themselves under increasing stress in a society characterized by extreme volatility. This book explores a new set of attitudes, values and beliefs which relate to the reality of our times. It is a theme that embodies the cultural ideal of the people. Science and technology is proposed as that connection. It is there and in the matrix of the human condition that this book searches out and explores bridges of understanding.
