Lewis Mumford's Books; - Technics & Civilization - The Culture of Cities - The Story of Utopias Lewis Mumford talks about technology, but from an anthropological pint of view. Another book I would recommend is The Nature of Technology by Brian Arthur The other I would recommend is James Burk's Connections he's has some books but I but the documentary is highly recommended.
