The Greek word technología can be translated as "artful treatise". Nowadays, technology stands for the highly specialized conversion of raw materials into products of
technical progress. These are changing the world at increasing speed. New forms of communication and a media networked society across the globe are increasingly
pushing established systems to their limits. Or as the publicist Neil Postmann writes:
"... technological change is always a Faustian bargain: Technology giveth and technology taketh away."
