An exploration of what it means to be human in a technological age.

Like it or not, tech is part of the air we breathe. Figuring out how to navigate—to use, not to use, how to use—new technologies has become an unavoidable part of twenty-first-century life. New technologies are everywhere, and they're breathlessly marketed to us as good, even while almost every sociological measure says we're not doing well.

In Wired for Wonder, writer and editor Aaron Cline Hanbury explores big questions related to how technology shapes and reshapes our world. What does it mean to be human when AI can do more and more? Does technological advancement necessarily mean human progress? Hanbury asks practical, day-to-day questions about how we interact with tech in everyday life. Where is our attention going, and who is buying it? Fundamentally, this book asks the age-old question: How do we relate to the stuff we make? Just because we can make something, does that mean we should?

Through relatable, regular-person dispatches from the intersections of technology, faith, and the everyday, Wired for Wonder gives voice to those who wonder if this technocentric moment makes our world—and us—better or worse.
