The Technocrats

Horton, Forest W. Jr. The Technocrats. New York: Nordon (sic), 1980. A Leisure Book.

The world of Nineteen Eighty-Four brought to us by computer takeover, with the computers operating through the android president of the United States and his android chief assistant. TT is significant neither for its analysis of technocracy nor for its literary quality, but for its presentation of the motifs of robotization and computer-takeover in a book marketed for a general audience.
