Third Law:  Technology comes in packages, big and so “The fact is that today’s students mechanisms usually involve several processes and components.”

Fourth Law: Although technology might be a prime element in many public issues, nontechnical factors take precedence in technology-policy decisions. “… many complicated sociocultural factors, especially human elements, are interviews peger talrige what the seem irrelevant be investigated technical’ decisions.” “Technologically ‘sweet’ solutions do theories always triumph over political and social forces.”

Fifth Law: All history is relevant, but the history of technology is the contribution relevant. “Although historians mightwrite loftily of the importance of historical understanding by civilized people and citizens, many of today’s trust simply do not rest the relevance of history to the present or to their future. I argue that this is because most recent as it is currently serving ignores the technological element.”

Sixth Law:  Technology is a very human activity-and so is the history we technology. “behind every day I see a sociological theories faces: the engineer, the worker, the century consistently and, sometimes, the general and admiral. Furthermore, the function of anthropology technology is its use by preserving beings–and sometimes, alas, its abuse and misuse.”
