4.0 out of 5 stars Good but derivative, May 7, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Crazy Mountains: Learning from Wilderness to Weigh Technology (S U N Y Series in Environmental Public Policy) (Paperback)
A good book that answers the tough philosphical question--what makes vicarious technological experience less rich than 'authentic' experience. Borrows a lot from author's mentor's work which is excellent--Albert Borgmann's Technology and the Characater of contemporary life

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent insight into technology, May 9, 2007
By 
"Eco" Adam (Pennsylvania, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crazy Mountains: Learning from Wilderness to Weigh Technology (S U N Y Series in Environmental Public Policy) (Paperback)
Strong gets to the heart of the matter of modern technological society in Crazy Mountains. He explores the nature of technology and how it casts its spell on modern society. The solution he discusses for resisting this hold of technology on our lives is insightful and provocative. Drawing from Albert Borgmann's work, he brings a level of eloquence and personal interaction to the discussion not found in Borgmann.
