additional remarks Advances in science and technology have gone hand-in-hand with social change starting with the earliest human advances in the stone and metal ages, through the industrial revolution, all the way to the digital age and beyond. In this seminar, five instructors have chosen works of literature to spark discussions about the interaction between technology and society. We're looking forward to this chance to hear your ideas and share ours.SPOILER ALERT! You should plan to read the book before the class - or at least have made a very good start. If you have trouble locating any of the books, please get in touch with Rose Jacobs (jacobs@zv.tum.de) as we will make some available for students to borrow.
