John R. Brinkley, published in 1986. The book "Machine Quilting Unlimited" by Dr. John R. Brinkley, published in 1986, presents a unique perspective on the relationship between technology and society. The author argues that the rapid evolution of technology has led to a loss of control over our lives and a disconnection from our own humanity. He suggests that we need to develop a personal paradigm for understanding the technological process of developing modern knowledge in order to survive in this new world. The book begins by discussing the history of technology and its impact on society, highlighting the ways in which machines have replaced human labor and created a culture of efficiency and productivity. However, this progress has come at a cost, as humans have become increasingly disconnected from their own creativity and intuition. The author argues that we need to study and understand the process of technology evolution in order to reclaim our lost humanity and find a sense of purpose in our lives. One of the key concepts in the book is the idea of the "technological imperative which refers to the belief that technology must constantly evolve in order to remain relevant and effective. This imperative drives the development of new technologies, but it also leads to a cycle of obsolescence, where older technologies are discarded and replaced with newer ones. The author suggests that this cycle of innovation and replacement has created a culture of disposability, where products and ideas are discarded without much thought or consideration.
