Description
Technoculture: The Key Concepts explores how scientific ideas shape our understanding of the world and influence our attitudes to various aspects of life. From biotechnology to communication, this book examines the impact of successive technological developments on society.
The author draws on case studies from a range of fields, including biotech foods, life-support systems, and video games, to illustrate the power of scientific ideas in shaping culture. This lively discussion aims to be both thought-provoking and informative.
