A big-hitting historical analysis of technology which uses the computer as a can-opener to expose the inequality innate in capitalism

Capitalism likes us to believe in the steady, inevitable march of progress, from the abacus to the iPad. But the historical record tells of innumerable roads not taken, all of which could have led to better worlds, and still can. Bob Hughes, an academic and activist, argues that prioritizing equality would develop superior and more diverse technologies that would lead to a richer more sustainable world.
