Living in the Labyrinth of Technology: Industrialization and Humanity's Third Megaproject

Willem H. Vanderburg

University of Toronto, Canada

This article is based on the general introduction and the opening sections of chapters 1 and 2 from the author's book,Living in the Labyrinth of Technology. It revisits the process of industrialization as having a dual component: people changing technology and technology changing people. The latter is almost universally overlooked and provides a different perspective.

Key Words: industrialization • technology • megaproject • culture • biosphere
