Book Reviews of Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology

Book Review: A STUDENT'S VIEW OF POSTMAN'S TECHNOPOLY
Summary: 1 Stars

What was Neil Postman thinking? Having been forced to suffer through this book for a college class, I feel dirty and violated. It was one of the most boring books I have ever read and it was filled with some of the most ridiculous tripe my eyes have ever passed over. Avoid this book at all costs- reading Postman is like drinking a glass of sand.
