Clifford Stoll’s Technology series consists of two books focused on technology and its place in society. Silicon Snake Oil appeared in 1995, followed by High-Tech Heretic in 1999. Both titles suggest a skeptical take on the promises of the tech world, and the four-year gap between them covers a period when the internet was rapidly changing everyday life.

The two books can be read in either order, though starting with Silicon Snake Oil gives the earlier perspective first. Together they offer a pair of viewpoints from the mid-to-late 1990s on questions about technology that many readers still find relevant.
