Synopsis

Society and Technology was an interdisciplinary Bachelor of Science degree at Middlesex Polytechnic that enrolled its first students in the autumn of 1973. This book collects together reminiscences, photos and events from the students and staff who undertook and taught the course from 1973 until 1981. What did the course mean to them? How did they come to be on it? What educational philosophies lay behind the course, and what were its intended outcomes? The stories related in this book cover the tail end of the hippie era, the dramatic rise and fall of punk sensibilities, and the coming of the new wave; student involvement in squatter's rights, demonstrations, and politics, always unaware of the coming culture and political shocks that were to end the dream-life of the 1960s and 1970s.
