Summary
"In their 'deliberately short book' IT analysts, management consultants and technology practitioners Roehrig and Pring explore how big a beast technology has become, and how we can tame it to maintain our freedom and privacy while still realising its benefits. The pandemic has shown just how much we rely on technology and how addictive it has become--the authors address the important questions--[and] urge us not to slay the monster but rather to leverage its power and reorient technology as a tool for good."--Financial Times
