The author argues that the rapid pace of technological change has led to a loss of control over our lives and a loss of understanding of the world around us. He suggests that we need to develop a personal paradigm for perceiving 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. The author argues that technology has always been a double-edged sword, bringing both benefits and drawbacks. However, in recent years, the rate of technological change has accelerated to such an extent that it has become difficult to keep up with the pace of innovation. This has led to a sense of disorientation and confusion among individuals and societies, as they struggle to adapt to the rapidly changing environment. The author then goes on to describe the consequences of this rapid technological change. He argues that the increasing reliance on technology has led to a decline in critical thinking skills, as people rely more and more on machines to make decisions for them.
