Description
* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.
*By reading this summary, you will discover how to live with technologies that are increasingly complex and difficult to understand.
*You will also discover that : the more a system accumulates interconnected elements, the more difficult it becomes to predict and explain its reactions; technology has reached such a level of complexity that no expert can grasp all the details; our understanding has limits that make exhaustive knowledge impossible; relying on sometimes obscure technologies makes us vulnerable in the event of a malfunction; to manage systems of a complexity that is beyond us, we must visualize their mechanisms.
*The more technology advances, the more our daily life is based on increasingly complex and interconnected systems. A simple bug can then be enough to bring our societies to a standstill. In fact, we live in a huge system where everything is connected. This apparent advantage can quickly turn into a nightmare when we lose control of our creations... If technology is beyond us today, it doesn't mean that we are condemned to impotence. To better understand it, we must look at it with a lucid, curious and critical eye.
