rick stevenson, who tells ceelys story in his book when machines fail us, points the finger at the limitations of technology. we put our faith in digital devices, he says, but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. they are filled with small problems. and its not just gps devices: stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless keyboards. the problem with his argument in the book is that its not clear why he only focuses on digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. a map-maker might have left the crossing off a paper map. maybe we should blame ceely for not paying attention. perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor singalling system. or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the gps equipment. but stevenson doesnt say. its a problem that runs through the book. in a section on cars, stevenson gives an account of the advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer-based locking systems for cars. he offers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country. he says that once again not all new locks have proved reliable. perhaps, but maybe its also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. or changing social circumstances. or some combination of these factors. the game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex. it is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in. somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for a wiser use of technology. if there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our machines. after all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. they have probably been fooling us for just as long.1. what did paula ceely think was the cause of her accident？a she was not familiar with the road. bit was dark and raining heavily then.cthe railway workers failed to give the signal. dher
