# The New Technology State: How Our Digital Dreams Became Societal Nightmares--And What We Can Do about It - Hardcover

by **Bill Raduchel** (Author)

"Bill Raduchel started at Harvard as my father's student, assistant, and friend. He went on to a career in technology as the digital revolution unfolded before his eyes. In _The New Technology State_, he suffuses the insights of The New Industrial State with the changes, challenges, and dangers of our information age." **\--James K. Galbraith, professor, University of Texas at Austin, and author of _The End of Normal_**

  

**This book is about society--how it has changed and what technology is enabling us to do to ourselves.**

  

Sixty years ago, legendary economist John Kenneth Galbraith issued a grim prophecy that the global elite would harness the potential of the burgeoning computing revolution to accumulate even more wealth and power.

  

His masterwork _The New Industrial State_ redefined our perception of ourselves and our society. The computing revolution has turned his predictions into a reality that triggered conversations between technology pioneer Bill Raduchel (a former colleague of Galbraith's at Harvard) and British Army officer turned MP Tom Tugendhat.

  

_The New Technology State_ recounts their discussions and reveals how the wealthy and powerful have used the incredible technological advances of the past half-century to gain unprecedented advantages and what we can do to reclaim control of our future.
