Paper Summary:

Today, on the verge of the twenty-first century and in the midst of the Information Technology Revolution, there is an unprecedented level of interest in both industry and academia as to how technology functions in terms of human interests and social organizations. One of the primary themes of Arnold Pacey's "The Culture of Technology" is that both the design and the practice of technology are embedded in human society and culture. As will be seen, he rejects the theoretical model of technological determinism in favour of a human-centred perspective on the development and application of technology.
