In the Absence of the Sacred

created by tim_three

(thing) by tim_three (3.6 y) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Sun Feb 13 2000 at 2:16:08

Book by Jerry Mander, discussing the impact of technology on the indigenous peoples of the world. Does a quick rehash and an update on television/Four Arguments For The Elimination of Television. Explains why computers are bad. Touches lightly on biotech. And ties it all together nicely with a primer on corporatism.

Even with a grain of salt, it's quite the eye opener. (Freaked me out. Read it at comdex 1998, where the focii were y2k, GIS and biometrics. jesus mary joseph ...)
