Ellul, Vanderburg and Theriault

Thanks for the great post about the Encyclopedia of Social Thermodynamics. I wasn't aware of it and think those ideas are fundamental. Lots of things to explore!

Ellul's book, The Technological Society, is a classic. You may also be interested in Living in the Labyrinth of Technology written by Ellul student and associate Willem Vanderburg. I wrote a book review of it for the Canadian Journal of Sociology. Interestingly, Vanderburg was the supervisor of our own Luc Theriault!
