Episode Details

This is an audio reading of “Industrial Society and It’s Future”. This was written by Ted Kaczynski in the early 90’s and was published in 1995.Intro:  The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the   human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us   who live in “advanced” countries, but they have destabilized society, have   made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led   to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical   suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The   continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will   certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater   damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social   disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical   suffering even in “advanced” countries.
