TECHNOLOGY is analyzed as a force for change within our world. The fundamental characteristics of all technologies are emphasized as these interact with and, sometimes, conflict with the dynamics of our social systems. The processes of technology development and technology transfer are presented and the process characteristics of this important effort are analyzed in terms of their impact on society. A variety of responses of society to technology are reviewed. Such responses limit the adaptation, the adoption and/ or absorption of new technology in a particular setting.
