摘要：The notion that human beings are themselves getting better is quite
obviously wrong. The quality of human beings is declining, even while
the web of man’s infrastructure grows around him. Modern man is a
Wizard of Oz, a shrunken soul in a mighty machine. Thus modern man
has multiplied his means of communication with mobile phones,
satellites, email, SMS—a whole array of devices—but then finds he has
nothing to say or no one to whom to say it. He has a diminishing
capacity to make any real contacts. He has prolific external means but
no inner reality to share. Ours is the age of the space tourist: truly
awesome technology devoted to truly trivial human beings.1
