“...timely and valuable...highly original....Tightly reasoned and far-ranging in examples and erudition, this book requires and rewards a close reading. Such relevant matters as community, education, energy, politics, and work earn cogen t and illuminating discussion....he insists that we have no healthy option but to struggle for a more democratic technological order. If we are soon or ever to achieve this, much credit will be owed his seminal work and a publisher civic-minded enough to bring out an inexpensive edition.”

—Annals of the American Academy of Political & Social Science

“No more intimidation! We citizens don't have to stand aside and leave it to the experts' when it comes to complex technological questions, argues Richard Sclove. His rich examples permit each of us to imagine a rewarding role in shaping the technologies that can serve our values. In the quiet citizen-led revolution of hope now transforming communities across America, this book will be an essential tool to strengthen democratic public problem-solving. Sclove gives us a compelling moral argument and a practical guide to shaping our future. Bravo!”

—Frances Moore Lapp‚ and Paul Martin DuBois, Co-Directors of the Center for Living Democracy and Coauthors of The Quickening of America: Rebuilding Our Nation, Remaking Our Lives

“This is an important book, one for which the community of science and technology studies scholars has been waiting. In clear prose, using numerous salient examples, Richard Sclove provides a philosophic and practical foundation for participatory technology. I am looking forward to using this book in several of my courses (undergraduate and adult education) because I think it teaches the vital lesson that all citizens are experts at understanding the impact of technological change and that all citizens can become experts at affecting technological development.”

—Ruth Schwartz Cowan, Past President of the Society for the History of Technology
