Description
"Lloyd J. Dumas's terrifying book chronicles past and potential calamities to shock us out of the complacent belief that we are safe in the hands of technology. Dumas presents what he calls a "calculus of catastrophe," an intelligent and aware evaluation of the disasters we can foresee and prevent, the risks that are too unlikely to worry about, and even the technologies that are too hazardous to warrant their use. Lethal Arrogance sounds an urgent wake-up call to put mind over matter and exercise human judgment over technological dominance."--BOOK JACKET.
