Negative Positive
Title: Lack of Control
Review: While I totally disagree with Postman's view that Technology is somehow a hulking stalker-in-the-night creature that is stealing away our values and culture, his point is though-provoking, if overly dramatic. While Postman has an entertaining wit and humor, his information is often awry and misguided. Though his point that technology must be examined, questioned, and taken control of by humanity is one that should be taken up and heralded by us all, the idea of technology on its own taking over our lives is entirely off base. Read this book if you want to ask questions about the ongoing technological "advances," but don't expect any clear answers, or, for that matter, any real information.
