Logical, lucid, and direct, Technological Slavery radically reinvigorates and reforms the intellectual foundations of an age-old and resurgent world-view: "Progress" is a myth. Wild nature and humanity are fundamentally incompatible with technological growth.  In Technological Slavery, Kaczynski argues that:(i) the unfolding human and environmental crises are the direct, inevitable result of technology itself;(ii) many of the stresses endured in contemporary life are not normal to the human condition, but unique to technological conditions;(iii) wilderness and human life close to nature are realistic and supreme ideals; and,  (iv) a revolution to eliminate modern technology and attain these ideals is necessary and far more achievable than would first appear.   Drawing on a broad range of disciplines, Kaczynski weaves together a set of visionary social theories to form a revolutionary perspective on the dynamics of history and the evolution of societies.  The result is a comprehensive challenge to the fundamental values and assumptions of the modern technology-driven world, pinning the cause of the rapidly unfolding catastrophe on technology itself, while offering a realistic hope for ultimate recovery.  Note: Theodore John Kaczynski does not receive any remuneration for this book.
