Summary/Abstract |
With characteristic wit and candour, Neil Postman launches a trenchant and harrowing warning against the tyranny of machines over man in the late twentieth century. n this witty, often terrifying work of cultural criticism, the author chronicles our transformation into a Technopoly: a society that no longer merely uses technology as a support system but instead is shaped by it--with radical consequences for the meanings of politics, art, education, intelligence, and truth.
