520 3 |a Mastering the Machine attempts to answer the question "Is small still beautiful?" drawing on case studies and previously unpublished material from Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. It draws on the lessons of history and three "development decades" to suggest how a more holistic approach to technology and its transfer can lead to genuine poverty reduction. Mastering the Machine is about a hybrid era, one caught somewhere between bronze and computers, between sail and jet engines; one in which quality has become confused with quantity, and means with ends. For the South--the "Third World"--it is a time of immense technological opportunity and optimism. It is also a period of unimaginable poverty and hopelessness. It is a time of ferment, change and technological growth. And it is unlike any other period in history, for today, in addition to artisans and artists, farmers, machinists and dreamers, the direction of technology is influenced and fashioned by bureaucrats, economists, faraway corporate planners, aid agencies and charities. Never before in history have so many nontechnical people exerted so much influence on the advancement, retardation and movement of technology. This book is about the interaction between these people, and between poverty, aid and technology in the Third World.
