Review
"Written as a report to the President of France, [this book] seeks to show how a new technology, computers, will reshape the social structure and how the economic and political systems must accommodate resulting new patterns of social life. Organized in terms of the challenges presented by advances in computer technology (or 'telematics, ' the growing interconnection between computers and telecommunications), the potential points of organizational support, and questions for the future."--"Science, Technology, and Human Values" "Raises both practical and philosophical problems, and suggests a French national plan. As is to be expected, there are many contrasts with the larger and looser American way of doing things in this domain."--"Foreign Affairs"
