Description

Does cybersex have side effects? Is technology a masculine culture? Who lords it over the global village? Technology is the bedrock of our information society but public debates on technology tend to be conducted by experts and to concentrate on the microchipa dn employment. "Framing Technology" reframes the discussion, arguing that technology ranges from language to transnational corporations, and that we should all share in technology choice.
