Wendell Berry in Harpers magizine “Faustian Economics” (Hell hath no limits) describes this delimina of our contemporaty civilization as: “It is this economy of community destruction that, wittingly or unwittingly, most scientists and technicans have served for the past two hundred years. These scientists and technicans have justified themselves by the proposition that they are the vanguard of progress, enlarging human power and knowledge, , and thus have romatized both themselves and the predatory enterprises that they have served. As a consequence, our great need now is science and technologies of limits”.
