We examine theories of the technology-society relationship and seek to explain the underlying effects of ethics, social interaction and relationships, and economics in technological innovation. We review the growing number of technological tools available to meet organizational demands of Human Services and examine the consequences related to organizational structure, environment, health, work, and communication.
