Sommario/riassunto |
|
In this important and original interdisciplinary work, well-known environmental philosopher Eric Katz explores technology's role in dominating, and thus destroying, both nature and human life and society. Katz's work is a plea for the development of a technology that does not dominate and destroy but instead promotes autonomy and freedom. |
