Title: Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology Author: Neil Postman Narrator: Jeff Riggenbach Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 40 minutes Release date: August 3, 2012 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: In this witty, often terrifying work of cultural criticism, Postman chronicles our transformation into a Technopoly: a society that no longer merely uses technology as a support system but instead is shaped by it. According to Postman, technology is rapidly gaining sovereignty over social institutions and national life to become self-justifying, self-perpetuating, and omnipresent. He warns that this will have radical consequences for the meanings of politics, art, religion, family, education, privacy, intelligence, and truth, as they are redefined to fit the requirements of the technological thought-world.
