Abstract

This book analyzes the impact of technology in the modern age, an age obsessed with technological options. Rivers observes the absence of substantive changes and the descent into an immobile conscious. He argues that under the laws of our current mediocre morality, individualism is oppressed and freedom denied. Technology has become the means by which we surrender self-control, the manner by which we seek subjection
