Lorenzo Simpson explores the nature of modernity and postmodernity addressing the question of the price exacted by modernity in its scientific and technological guises. Technology, Time, and the Conversations of Modernity takes as its impetus the idea that technology is an embodiment of our uneasiness with finitude. Lorenzo Simpson argues that technology has succeeded in granting our wish to domesticate time. He shows how this attitude affects our understanding of the meaning of action and our ability to discern meaning in our lives.
