Specificatii
In this wide-ranging survey, Peter J. Bowler explores the
phenomenon of futurology: predictions about the future development
and impact of science and technology on society and culture in the
twentieth century. Utilising science fiction, popular science
literature and the novels of the literary elite, Bowler highlights
contested responses to the potential for revolutionary social
change brought about by real and imagined scientific innovations.
Charting the effect of social and military developments on
attitudes towards innovation in Europe and America, Bowler shows
how conflict between the enthusiasm of technocrats and the
pessimism of their critics was presented to the public in books,
magazines and exhibitions, and on the radio and television. A
series of case studies reveals the impact of technologies such as
radio, aviation, space exploration and genetics, exploring
rivalries between innovators and the often unexpected outcome of
their efforts to produce mechanisms and machines that could change
the world.
