What people on Hacker News said
Kaczynski, Industrial Society and its Future - like the two above, but more modern, frighteningly prescient, and with some unfortunate baggage attached. Still, it's short, and worth a read.
Both these books drastically changed my perception of technology. The role we think it has and the effects and consequences it does have.
“Industrial society and its future” made me really reflect on the purpose technology has in my life.
You can then read Industrial Society by Ted Kaczynski and understand his desperation.
