The first hundred years of industrialization in England delivered stagnant incomes for workers, while making a few people very rich. And throughout the world today, digital technologies and artificial intelligence increase inequality and undermine democracy through excessive automation, massive data collection and intrusive surveillance. It doesn't have to be this way. 'Power and Progress' demonstrates that the path of technology was once - and can again be - brought under control.
