Instructions: Compose a 1000 word essay citing your sources (which may come from the required course readings, Discussions, and credible outside sources) in your choice of Chicago Style, APA, or MLA, including aBibliography or Works Cited Section.

With your chosen group, trace the technological transformations in their lives and the changes in how they see the universe.
