About this product

Product Information

More than anything else techlogy creates our world. It creates our wealth, our ecomy, our very way of being, says W. Brian Arthur. Yet despite techlogy's irrefutable importance in our daily lives, until w its major questions have gone unanswered. Where do new techlogies come from? What constitutes invation, and how is it achieved? Does techlogy, like biological life, evolve? In this groundbreaking work, pioneering techlogy thinker and ecomist W. Brian Arthur answers these questions and more, setting forth a boldly original way of thinking about techlogy. The Nature of Techlogy is an elegant and powerful theory of techlogy's origins and evolution. Achieving for the development of techlogy what Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions did for scientific progress, Arthur explains how transformative new techlogies arise and how invation really works. Drawing on a wealth of examples, from historical inventions to the high-tech wonders of today, Arthur takes us on a mind-opening journey that will change the way we think about techlogy and how it structures our lives. The Nature of Techlogy is a classic for our times.
