ECHNOLOGY changes society by changing our environment to which we, in turn, adapt. This change is usually in the material environment, and the adjustment we make to the changes often modifies customs and social institutions. Everywhere there is evidence of the stimulus of war in developing an unprecedented number of inventions which are being added to and changing our material environment. We shall be interested in seeing how these wartime developments in applied science will change society in peacetime. Inventions influence society today, first by being produced in large quantities in factories and secondly by being used by large numbers of consumers
