In The Nature of Technology, ground-breaking economist W. Brian
Arthur explores the extraordinary way in which the technology that
surrounds us and allows us to live our modern lives has actually
been developed. Rather than coming from a series of one-off
inventions, almost all the technology we use today comes from
previous developments: these technologies are not being created,
but are instead evolving. With fascinating examples, from laser
printers to powerplants, Arthur reveals how our own problem-solving
skills and creative vision can evolve alongside these technologies,
and how this understanding can even improve our understanding of
the wider world.
