The whale and the reactor
Book • 1986
First published to great acclaim in 1988, Langdon Winner’s groundbreaking work examines the relationship between technical change and political power.
The book demonstrates that choices about technical systems are choices about who we want to be and what kind of world we want to create, involving profound decisions about power, liberty, order, and justice.
The second edition includes a new chapter, preface, and postscript by the author, making it a seminal text in the history and philosophy of science.
