Neil Postmans Technopoly/ Technology
Damaging
Communication : A 5 page paper examining Postmans book.
Author Neil Postman is certain that the age of technology will
be the end of any ability of communicating with one another
that we now currently retain. He laments the passing of the
tool-using age without acknowledging that rather than
abandoning the use of tools, we are further embracing them,
though in modified form. Though he raises valid concerns, he
never quite finishes a thought or arrives at a logical,
well-considered conclusion. Bibliography lists 1 source.
