| Publisher Description: Originally published in 1986, the six essays that comprise Technology and Justice offer absorbing reflections on the extent to which technology has shaped the way we live now. George Grant, one of Canada's most influential philosophers, explores the fate of traditional values in modern education, social behaviour, and religion, and offers his insights into some of the most contentious ethical deliberations of the past half-century. In essays ranging in content from classical philosophy to the morals of euthanasia, Technology and Justice showcases Grant's stimulating commentary on the meaning of the North American experience. |
