Making Technology Work for Society

The relationship between humans and technology is one of immense progress. It encompasses many life-changing inventions like fire and electricity, which have had an overall positive impact on humanity. But technology is developing so rapidly that we rarely take a moment to reflect on whether we are shaping technology or whether it is shaping us. How much do you know about emerging technologies such as deep learning, blockchain and internet of things? Decision-makers must understand how technology affects us and why ethics plays such an essential role in both its development and real-world application. Technology and Governance allows readers to get up to speed with fast-paced technological changes. The author takes complex technical ideas and distils them into user-friendly concepts. Even without detailed knowledge of the mathematics behind artificial intelligence or the computer code behind digital currencies, this book will provide an understanding of technology’s present and future impact on society.

CASPER JASPERS is a tech entrepreneur and a corporate lawyer. He is a guest lecturer in the New Board Program (Nyenrode Business University) and a lecturer at the Centre for Professional Legal Education (CPO).
