商品描述
Information technology (IT) is changing us, our society and our world, and it influences how we perceive the world and how we think about it. This book describes the rather complex development of IT over the last 70 years, highlights the dynamics of this process, and critically reflects on both ongoing technical and related societal changes. The book discusses fundamental developments in informatics, looks at recent "game changers" like artificial intelligence and the Web with their dynamics and their repercussions on our lives and on society, which are at the same time - like so many new technologies in the history of mankind - both positive and negative. It explains and analyzes the complex interplay of technology and humans, and it also tries to point us towards a sustainable society and a better life respecting human rights. To this end, it introduces Digital Humanism, a holistic and proactive approach that focuses on the analysis of this process and the integration of technical and social innovation. This is a science communication book, written for a broad readership and assumes no specific prior knowledge, just an interest in the subject. It provides a framework for how to use IT reasonably, consciously, sensibly, and sustainably - in accordance with human rights and the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.

資訊科技（IT）正在改變我們、我們的社會和我們的世界，並影響我們如何看待世界以及我們對其的思考。本書描述了過去70年資訊科技的相當複雜的發展，突顯了這一過程的動態，並批判性地反思持續的技術及相關的社會變化。
本書討論了資訊學的基本發展，關注最近的「遊戲改變者」，如人工智慧和網路，及其動態和對我們生活及社會的影響，這些影響同時具有正面和負面的特徵，就像人類歷史上許多新技術一樣。它解釋並分析了技術與人類之間的複雜互動，並試圖引導我們朝向一個可持續的社會和尊重人權的更美好生活。為此，它介紹了數位人文主義（Digital Humanism），這是一種全面且主動的方式，專注於分析這一過程及技術與社會創新的整合。
這是一本科學傳播書籍，為廣泛的讀者群而寫，並不假設任何特定的先前知識，只需對該主題感興趣。它提供了一個框架，說明如何合理、有意識、明智且可持續地使用資訊科技，符合人權和聯合國的可持續發展目標。
