First line
You open the door in the gate and there it is: the machine outside the garden.
From the rear cover
Hand's End provides a historical overview of Western philosophical thought about the interrelationship of technology and nature. . . . For all concerned about our planet and humankind's ability to find a sustainable future, Rothenberg extends his hand and mind in affirmation of a more beneficial technology."--Robert S. Blount III, Forest and Conservation Biology
"Technology, human nature, and nature, according to Rothenberg, are inextricable. . . . [and are] explained en route to a bold new theory that encompasses ancient waterworks and nuclear weapons."--Howard Rheingold, editor ofThe Millennium Whole Earth Catalog
"Using pungent historical examples, Hand's End argues that technology, properly used, can extend nature rather than destroy it."--Roger Shattuck, author of The Innocent Eye
