Study Notes
Introduction
- Comparing the lives of people before and now shows changes happened in society.
- Changes extend beyond culture, language, or rights, to the way of life due to science and technology.
- The "generation gap" is due to changes brought about by technology.
- Technology’s original idea is to help everyone.
- Older generations may find new technologies complicated to operate, even though appealing.
- Bridging the "generation gap" challenges science and technology to make advancements accessible and less confusing.
- The younger generation can guide the older generation in science and technology.
Fascination with Science and Technology
- Fascination with science and technology led to inventions enjoyed today.
- Science and technology help people experience what it means to live.
- People of the past and present have different views of flourishing because of their environment and period.
- People's way of life and society affect how one construes the concept of human flourishing.
- The environment must be assessed to know the possibility and extent of human flourishing.
- Drastic changes in human flourishing conception and human condition are due to the interplay of factors, mainly science and technology.
The Human Condition Before Common Era
- Early ancestors' survival needs led to inventions.
- Humans utilize materials due to advanced brains.
- The motivation to make things easier has been around since humans existed.
- Homo erectus used fire for cooking by chipping flint.
- They didn't realize laws of friction and heat.
- Stone and flint tools marked the Stone Age.
- Homo sapiens sharpened stones, like knives, such as the wedge.
- This period was difficult with little written accounts, only cave drawings and artifacts narrate culture.
- There was little capacity to contemplate things outside themselves.
- People discovered minerals and forged metalwork, which were more durable and malleable.
- Religion may have answered questions, with ceremonial figures found from the Stone Age.
- Ancestors found the need to explain things, justifying events as supernatural.
Relationship with Nature
- Humans were content with their relationship with nature for a long tie.
- The earliest man-made extinction occurred over 12,000 years ago, possibly from hunting and territorial disputes.
- The Holocene/Anthropocene extinction occurred from 100,000-200,000 years ago to the present.
- The extinction includes flora and fauna due to human activity.
- Humans drove off megafaunas due to their primal need to survive.
New Objectives
- People's new objective was to gather as much produce as possible.
- Humans turned to wealth as a goal in civilization.
- Those with wealth were perceived to live comfortably and be happier.
- People began to hunt, farm, and produce for profit.
- A nuclear community must accommodate its growing population, and relies on other communities to survive.
Technology's Instrumental Role

- People desired gold and tried to turn lead into it with incantations and substance mixtures.
- It prepared the way for primitive chemistry, bordering on alchemy.
Position of Humans Today
- Humans today are better off than humans centuries ago.
- Notable comparisons between then and now include mortality rate, average lifespan, literacy rate, and GDP.
The Essence of Technology
- Humanity has come a long way from primitive ways, now more "developed".
- Modern humans rely on technology in their search for the good life.
- Since humans do not know what they are looking for, pursuit continues.
- The path we pursue now may not be correct, leading us in circles in our pursuit.
Backtracking The Human Condition
- Technology's initial promises held true, with improving human condition that increases comfort, and scientific breakthroughs.
- Machineries prolongs lives, assists those with disabilities, and increases efficiency.
- Space explorations are happening to see if humans can live else where once all of Earths resources are gone.
- The human condition is a more sophisticated reflection of its former self.
- Not much has changed, but can if views shifts.
- Technological advancements speed-up as society moralities fail to catch-up.
