From domesticated wheat fields to nuclear power plants and spacecraft, everything we see and interact with has in some way been changed by the presence of our species, starting from the Neolithic era so many centuries ago. .This book provides a crash course on the issues and debates surrounding technology’s shifting place in our society. It covers the history of our increasingly black-box world, which some theorize will end with technology accelerating beyond our understanding. At the same time, it analyzes competing trends and theories, the lack of scientific knowledge of large sections of the population, the dogmas of pseudoscience, and the growing suspicion of science and technology, which may inevitably lead to scientific stagnation. .What will the future of our civilization look like? How soon might scientific acceleration or stagnation arrive at our doorstep, and just how radicallywill such technological shifts change our culture? These are issues that we must address now, to insure our future goes the way we choose.. | | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | | 关键词 | history of technology; black box; technological singularity; technological stagnation; industrial revolu | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-25583-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-25582-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-25583-1 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 |
