Rezension zu „Technobiophilia “
Sue Thomas has taken a very personal and broadly interdisciplinary look at one of the most important issues of our time -- the tension between the natural and digital worlds. This book provides a useful lens for seeing where we are, who we are, and where humans, our digital creations, and the natural world are heading. We need to learn to make fulfilling lives without abandoning either the world of technology or the world of biology. Technobiophlia shows the way. -- Howard Rheingold, Lecturer, Stanford University, US, and author of Net Smart At a time when our technological environment has become so intricate, omnipresent and autonomous that we have started to perceive it as a nature of its own, such sensibilities are desperately needed. -- Koert van Mensvoort, author of Next Nature: Nature Changes Along with Us
