The Unmaking of Us: How Technology Shapes, Shrinks, and Steals Humanity

By Brenda Wesley

A powerful exploration of how technology is reshaping what it means to be human-and how we can reclaim ourselves.

Across the modern world, a vast technological-economic Machine is quietly rewiring our identities, our communities, and our inner lives. From the Industrial Revolution to the rise of artificial intelligence, the systems we built for convenience and progress have begun to erode meaning, attention, culture, and connection to the natural world.

The Unmaking of Us reveals how this transformation happened-and what we can do about it. Blending history, philosophy, and spiritual insight, the author shows how our work, values, traditions, and sense of self have been altered by forces we barely notice. Yet this is not a book of despair: it offers a path back toward human flourishing through small acts of resistance, renewed cultural memory, deeper attention, and reconnection to place.

Urgent, poetic, and deeply hopeful, The Unmaking of Us is a guide for anyone seeking to stay human in an age that too easily forgets what humanity is for.
