Technology and the evolution of man-what of the future?
Modern man evolved slowly over millions of years and is unlikely to develop further in the short term. In his present form it appears the current pace of technologically inspired social change is more than man can adequately control; three examples illustrate this. The future will therefore be determined either by nature itself or by man if he can find the will and the institutional framework to slow the pace of change to one he can comfortably handle.
