Synesis: A Journal of Science, Technology, Ethics, and Policy 2013; 4: T16-20
In this paper I explore the conceptual relationship between wisdom and well-being and present a theoretical model based on the notion of wisdom for evaluating the normative impact of technology on society. Finally, I briefly explore the question of how to design wisdom-in-technologies for the enhancement of wellbeing.
