Product Description

From Library Journal

Cooper analyzes technology as the political essence of the contemporary world. He considers how it has altered human consciousness through its worldlessness, its notions of infinite process which deny substantive meaning, and its functionalization of social science, which can lead to totalitarianism and the loss of tradition. Cooper finds vast implications for modern notions of God, nature, world, and society, which lead to purposelessness, he feels, because the experience of the mystery of being has been lost. This difficult but rewarding book is recommended for academic and large public and seminary libraries.
