Sinossi

In his prescient first book, award-winning technologist Kentaro Toyama shatters the delusions of techno-utopians who believe technology is a force for absolute progress or moral good and brilliantly identifies those complex development issues, particularly in the third world, that we can only hope to solve through human intervention and investment in slow, human growth.
