Letters from Lake Como - Explorations in Technology and the Human Race (Paperback)


This book collects a fascinating series of letters written by theologian-philosopher Romano Guardini in the mid-1920s in which he works out for the first time his sense of the challenges of humanity in a culture increasingly dominated by the machine. With prophetic clarity and unsettling farsightedness, Guardini's letters poignantly capture the personal implications and social challenges of living in the technological age concerns that have now come to fruition seventy years after they were first raised."
