How Then Shall We Work: Should Christian Engineers Pursue Productivity?, Kayt Frisch, Michael Foster, Justin R. Vander Werff
Faculty Work Comprehensive List
Technology critics like Neal Postman (Amusing Ourselves to Death) and Nicholas Carr (The Shallows) have long held forth that our technology shapes us.

This involves a technical application of quantitative microeconomics which is paired with expertise and insights on human behavior gleaned from the behavioral sciences. It turns out that human behavior is often better explained by behavioral categories such as hope …
