New knowledge gives us power for change: for good or ill, for knowledge is neutral. The problems we face go well beyond technology: problems of living in harmony with nature, and most important, living in harmony with each other. Information technology, so closely tied to the properties of the human mind, can give us, if we ask the right questions, the special insights we need to advance these goals.” Herbert Simon , 1916 – 2001 Nobel Laureate in Economics, 1978 7 Preface Technology remains as the fountainhead for human development and economic growth.
