The Cult of Information: A Neo-Luddite Treatise on High-Tech, Artificial Intelligence, and the True Art of Thinking
ISBN: 9780520085848 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 267 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. As we devote ever-increasing resources to providing, or prohibiting, access to information via computer, Theodore Roszak reminds us that voluminous information does not necessarily lead to sound thinking. "Data glut" obscures basic questions of justice and purpose and may even hinder rather than enhance our productivity.
In this revised and updated edition of The Cult of Information, Roszak reviews the disruptive role the computer has come to play in international finance and the way in which "edutainment" software and computer games degrade the literacy of children. At the same... As we devote ever-increasing resources to providing, or prohibiting, access to information via computer, Theodore Roszak reminds us that voluminous in...

Zrod kontrakultury
ISBN: 9788075300355 / Czeski / 2016 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Theodore Roszak (1933-2011), patří k nejvýraznějším americkým historikům a sociologům. Pojmem kontrakultura vystihl v roce 1969 průsečík mezi Novou levicí a hippies, jímž byl boj proti tomu, co nazývá technokracií – režim založený na korporátní a technologické expertíze, který vládne v průmyslové společnosti.
Detailní rozbor několika myslitelů, kteří tehdejší mladistvou kontrakulturu ovlivnili nejsilněji – Herberta Marcuseho a Normana Browna, Allena Ginsberga a Paula Goodmana – ukazuje, jakým způsobem každý z nich zpochybňuje...

Bugs
ISBN: 9780595297634 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nobody could have imagined that information technology, the towering colossus that dominates our world, would meet its match in an innocent, six-year-old girl named Daphne. Yet the vengeful horror that this psychically gifted child lures out of the secret recesses of the world's computers rapidly grows into a global calamity. As the crisis deepens, powers darker and more mysterious than modern science can understand must be invoked in order to defend a threatened humanity.

"We live in a time when the very private experience of having a personal destiny to fulfill has become a subversive political force of major proportions. An this (perhaps) is the way the industrial world comes to an end, in a noisy celebration of social deviance and personal defiance."
In "Person/Planet," Theodore Roszak, founder of the ecopsychology movement and author of such internationally acclaimed works as "The Making of a Counter Culture" and "The Voice of the Earth," brings together the insights of deep ecology and humanistic psychology. The result is a powerful reassertion of... "We live in a time when the very private experience of having a personal destiny to fulfill has become a subversive political force of major proportio...

The Making of a Counter Culture: Reflections on the Technocratic Society and Its Youthful Opposition
ISBN: 9780520201224 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. When it was published twenty-five years ago, this book captured a huge audience of Vietnam War protesters, dropouts, and rebels--and their baffled elders. Theodore Roszak found common ground between 1960s student radicals and hippie dropouts in their mutual rejection of what he calls the technocracy--the regime of corporate and technological expertise that dominates industrial society. He traces the intellectual underpinnings of the two groups in the writings of Herbert Marcuse and Norman O. Brown, Allen Ginsberg and Paul Goodman. In a new introduction, Roszak reflects on the evolution of...
