Summary of Creatures of Prometheus

Technology is a huge factor in defining human nature. Two issues that reiterate this purposal include: the important difference between the things humans make and the way they use them, and the role of technology in distinguishing gender roles. Humans are capable of making neutral objects and using them for either good or evil; this is a defining point for what it means to be human. Technology brought about the ability to do different tasks, some just for men and some just for women; the difference in the technology they use and how they use it (ie: labor) is what distinguishes males from females.
