Man and Science Today
The Rt. Hon. Anthony Wedgwood Benn, M.P. on "Machines and People"
Technology is power. In the past two decades new machines have drastically reshaped our lives. Technology has re-charted the map of the world, creating new frontiers, new organisations, new problems, and new opportunities. Our ability to travel, calculate, communicate, and to kill each other has increased enormously. What are the implications of all these developments for our lives? What sort of society is emerging? How can we find our place in it?
In this filmed programme Anthony Wedgwood Benn, Minister of Technology, presents, in an illustrated talk to a group of young technology and art students, his personal view on the impact of technology on people.
