The Double Helix: Technology and Democracy in the American Future

Autor Edward Wenk Jr.
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 apr 1999 – vârsta până la 17 ani
Whoever controls technology controls the future. While that prospect stings, it has a bright side. America's preeminence stems from a remarkable intertwining of technology and democracy. The Constitutions set the course. Technology provided the means. As we recognize that technology is about power, physical, economic and political, business is facilitated but principles of liberty and justice may be at risk. This book examines causes and offers remedies to strengthen self-government and restore politics as the public life of a people.
