Introduction
Welcome to Best Podcasts: Technology and Society. This guide will point you to some of the best podcasts on two topics: 1) the ethical and social issues related to new technologies and 2) future predictions for technology. This is one volume in a set of short books I’ve put together to help you find the best audio programs to listen to (of the many thousands available).
This guide is for anyone interested in these topics, and also for librarians and educators — anyone who recommends podcasts for other people.
How to Listen
If you’re not familiar with podcasts or how to listen to them, read the chapter later in this book called How to Listen
for some tips.
