Technology and the Future

This episode reviews two significant books giving wider historical and philosophical understandings of technology and technological patterns of thinking. The first is The Metaphysics of Technology by David Skribina and the second In the Shadow of the Machine by Jeremy Naydler, who has recently published a sequel entitled The Struggle for a Human Future. The key question is: what does it mean to be human? And in our time I regard it essential to reaffirm our spiritual nature and the validity of spiritual experience giving us deeper insights into the nature of reality.
