Franklin, Ursula - The Real World of Technology

Technology has always been a part of human existence. Today though, says the experimental physicist, Ursula M. Franklin, technology has large-scale effects on culture itself.

Ursula Franklin is an experimental physicist, University Professor Emeritus at the University of Toronto, a former board member of the National Research Council and the Science Council of Canada, and a companion of the Order of Canada. She has been awarded honorary degrees by more than ten Canadian universities.

The Real World of Technology is published by House of Anansi.

Audio for these lectures can be found in a few places, but it's nice to have it in book form. Definitely recommended for anyone who wants to understand what kind of mess we are in right now!
