Technological Slavery
Ratings3
Average rating3.8
Theodore Kaczynski saw violent collapse as the only way to bring down the techno-industrial system, and in more than a decade of mail bomb terror he killed three people and injured 23 others. One does not need to support the actions that landed Kaczynski in supermax prison to see the value of his essays disabusing the notion of heroic technology while revealing the manner in which it is destroying the planet. For the first time, readers will have an uncensored personal account of his anti-technology philosophy, including a corrected version of the notorious ''Unabomber Manifesto,''Kaczynski, s critique of anarcho-primitivism, and essays regarding ''the Coming Revolution.''

I bought this book knowing nothing about it and expected it to be unhinged ranting. I was happily surprised that there is none of that. After finishing the book I certainly felt differently about Kaczynski.
In the version I had, there were letters he wrote back and forth with some journalist and Kaczynski is asked about the fact that he murdered a bunch of people. He doesn't really respond other than saying that it was the only way his ideas would get any attention.
One of the most, if not the most accurate and relatable criticisms of the XXI century. Extremely lucid and direct, reader can feel the force of the arguments drawn in this book. Every one of them backed by significant and intelligent logic
