Reviews"Technology & Society provides an up-to-date overview of the sociological impacts of technology. It challenges students to think about the impacts of the technologies they use and design without forcing a single perspective or 'right' answer on them, instead prompting them to think about these issues for themselves." --Matt Borland, University of Waterloo"If you want an informative but concise textbook that provides an introduction to the study of technology and the issues surrounding technology with historical context and a challenging theoretical component, this is an excellent book for a first year class." -- Jamie Killingsworth, University of Guelph-Humber, "Technology and Society provides an up-to-date overview of the sociological impacts of technology.
