This eyeopening book describes how modern technologiessuch as computers, automobiles, machine tools, hybrid crops, nuclear reactors, and otherscontribute to vexing social problems ranging from the continued subordination of women and workers to widespread political disengagement. Engineers, manufacturers, and policy makers rarely take these consequences into account. Contending that reinvigorated democratic politics can and should supersede conventional economic reasoning as a basis for decisions about technology, Richard Sclove clearly outlines how the general public can become actively involved in all phases of technology decision making, from assessment and policy making to research and development.Winner American Political Science Association's Don K. Price Award
