One of Thorstein Veblen’s most important works, L’Instinct artisan [The Instinct of Workmanship] describes the origins of the behavior of the modern Homo economicus. This book traces technological developments to examine the feedback mechanisms at work between humans’ environment and their instincts, in their capacity as both creators and predators.
