The purpose of writing this book is twofold: one, to make a critical exposition of Heidegger's views on science and technology; two, to go beyond Heidegger by suggesting certain steps to counter technology, This work is a critical appreciation especially of Heidegger's thoughts on technology in the current context of the threat to humans and the environment posed by technology. Heidegger's way of meditative thinking could help us retain our sanity. His approach to technology is metaphysical. I argue that the metaphysical approach is good but insufficient. We need a moral approach to technology as well. Could anything other than the moral and spiritual purification of our character redeem us from the perils of technology?
