520 $aTechnology demands uniformity from human beings who encounter it. People encountering technology, however, differ from one another. Thinkers in the early twentieth century, observing the awful consequences of interactions between humans and machines- death by automobiles or dismemberment by factory machinery, for example -developed the idea of accident proneness: the tendency of a particular person to have more accidents than most people. In tracing this concept from its birth to is disappearance at the end of the twentieth century, Accident Prone offers a unique history of technology focused not on innovations but on their unintended consequences.--Book jacket.
