A. Kiselev. The book "Патофизиология критических состояний" (Pathophysiology of Critical States) by A. A. Kiselev is a thought-provoking and insightful work that delves into the intricacies of technological evolution and its impact on human society. The author presents a compelling argument for the need to study and understand the process of technological development, highlighting the importance of developing a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process of modern knowledge. This paradigm, according to the author, is essential for the survival of humanity and the unity of people in a world torn apart by conflict and war. The book begins by exploring the concept of critical states, which are periods of rapid change and transformation that occur during the development of complex systems, including social, economic, and political systems. These critical states can lead to either positive or negative outcomes, depending on how they are managed. The author emphasizes the need for a deep understanding of the underlying processes driving technological advancements and their potential consequences for humanity. One of the central themes of the book is the idea that technology has become an integral part of our lives, shaping our perceptions, behaviors, and interactions with one another.
