Product Description
Excerpt from Science, Technology and the Christian
Yet this is precisely what happened in the first indus trial revolution. There would not otherwise have been such appalling standards of home building nor such unsatisfactory working conditions for a large part of our population. We suffer the reward for our former lack of imagination in the existence of ugly, characterless, unhealthy manufacturing towns; and in a serious debase ment of the value which we attach to ordinary honest work. It would indeed be tragic if the moral of those earlier failures were not heeded now, as we move into a new industrial revolution. Someone must speak, in words which can be easily understood. Someone must Show that the problems are different now from what they were then.
