The Technology Trap

THE OLD ENVIRONMENT - that in which our species originally evolved - seems now to be a thing of the past. Today only a handful of isolated tribesmen lead their lives amid anything approaching that ancient world.

But, as we will see, that abandoned environment does live on in a very significant way. It lives within us as part of our inner world. For all our technology, we remain subjects of that former world. Our joys, our understandings - our very natures - are closely tied to life as it was lived in that bygone environment.

We can avoid recognition of this fact only at considerable pril to the continued existence of our species. A central purpose of this book is to show how the human environment of the past - the original middle realm - forged our intellectual powers in their present molds, and to describe the present dilemma of reconciling our formed natures with present needs and future hopes." - From the book.
