Annotation One of the central issues of the modern age is the controversial relationship between technological advance and the environment. If humankind is to survive into the future we must face the challenge of maintraining the delicate balance of nature and find an answer to the question of how technology can best be used to provide benefits for humankind while limiting, repairing, or avoiding entirely the damage it might cause.
The British and American study texts in this anthology, together with illustrations, discuss these questions by putting them into historical perspective and presenting visions of possible futures that await us.
Integrated study aids provide additional background information and assignments to guide students towards an analysis and interpretation of the texts and help them gain a deeper and broader understanding of the complex nature of the relationship between technology and the environment, while offering ample opportunity to discuss how opposing views can be reconciled.
The accompanying Resource Book with its detailed commentary on content and context can also be used by students to add to their knowledge of the topic and gain access to the thorough interpretation it provides, thus further complementing the skills acquired and practised via the assignments in the study aids.
