Gunkel examine the metaphors applied to new technologies, and how metaphor informs, shapes, and encourage the application of these technologies. Taking the attitude that there is no value-neutral speech, Gunkel examine metaphors like "information superhighway" and "electronic frontier" for political and social content, and he developed a critical investigation which not only traces the history of conceptual metaphors', but explicates the implications and consequences for development technology.
