Now, from a Silicon Valley hero and bestselling technology writer comes a pointed critique of the hype surrounding computers and their real benefits, especially in education. In \u003cb\u003eHigh-Tech Heretic\u003c\/b\u003e, Clifford Stoll questions the relentless drumbeat for \"computer literacy\" by educators and the computer industry, particularly since most people just use computers for word processing and games--and computers become outmoded or obsolete much sooner than new textbooks or a good teacher.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs one who loves computers as much as he disdains the inflated promises made on their behalf, Stoll offers a commonsense look at how we can make a technological world better suited for people, instead of making people better suited to using machines.","brand":"Anchor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67797523792109,"sku":"9780385489768","price":14.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/0797\/6685\/files\/9780385489768.jpg?v=1792162247","url":"https:\/\/qepbooks.com\/products\/high-tech-heretic","provider":"QEP Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
