Technology has advanced to the point where progress seems limited not by physical constraints but the human imagination. Writing for both literate technologists and numerate humanists, Lee makes a case for engineering -- creating technology -- as a deeply intellectual and fundamentally creative process. Explaining why digital technology has been so transformative and so liberating, Lee argues that the real power of technology stems from its partnership with humans. 650 0 $a Technology $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Computer science $v Popular works. 650 0 $a Creative ability. 650 7 $a Computer science. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00872451 650 7 $a Creative ability. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00882417 650 7 $a Technology $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145171 655 7 $a Popular works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423846 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?vid=isbn9780262036481 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180403021317.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20171206010853.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2B4DE6F2DA5311E7BD35112897128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
