Books on technology

The role of technology on our society has been discussed widely. But is technological advancement the single, most important factor shaping our future? There is a very good article over the Neuromarketing blog titled “Futurehype: The Myths of Technological Change”. The article reviews a recent book with the same title by Bob Seidensticker.

I have not had the opportunity to read the book yet, but I am eager to do so because it apparently contradicts the theories from Ray Kurzweil, one of my favorite authors who wrote ‘The Singularity is Near’ (click here to read more about The Singularity).
