The Triumph of the Irrational
Publication Date: 01/10/2000
At first glance, technology and magic would seem to be opposites. Technology is perceived to be rational, scientific and efficacious, whereas magic is thought to be irrational, superstitious and ineffective. Richard Stivers shows how technology and magic, while separate and distinct, are now related to one another in such a way that each has come to take on important characteristics of the other.
