출판사 줄거리
"Sean Johnston has written an innovative study of a movement that has become a dominant feature of the modern world's obsession with technology. This is an important story that will be of interest to historians of technology, economic and cultural historians, and anyone worried about the current state of affairs." Peter J. Bowler, Queen's University Belfast and author of A History of the Future: Prophets of Progress from H.G. Wells to Isaac Asimov "Modern society and its technologies have become mutually dependent, but it is time to temper the torrid love affair. Johnston surveys genetic engineering and concerns about genetically modified foods among the many other examples of failures in his comprehensive look at the problems associated with the unbridled use of the tech fix." Winnipeg Free Press "Johnston summarizes his work as a warning against the rhetoric of technological hubris: we must view with skepticism "evangelists for numerous miraculous technological cures." The point is well made, but the book, inadvertently, makes another sobering one ... we realise that there was a time when the President of the United States was advised by such distinguished scientists as I.I. Rabi, a Nobel Laureate in Physics, Jerome Wiesner, who became President of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and Alvin Weinberg. In 2020, no such person briefed Donald Trump."
