OverviewThis is the second volume of essays from the Centre for Culture, Technology and Values, and it carries on the standard set by its predecessor in providing accessible and useful essays on critical contemporary issues. This unique collection, deriving from the Sophia Europa project, at once creative and provocative, delivers an engaging commentary on the interface between culture and values from a variety of perspectives. The contributors include Benedictine monks, university academics, economists, philosophers and ethicists. This work addresses a significant gap in the contemporary literature: while many are focused on the issue of technology per se, this volume considers technology from a much wider social, historical and holistic perspective, and assists in fostering a debate about technology that considers wider implications of application, values and identity. Drawing from a pantheon of European scholars, the essays deliver concise and insightful content that addconsiderably to the manner in which the current identity debate is framed.
