In 1987, economist Robert Solow quipped, "You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics." Solow wasn't the last expert to note the discrepancy between the vast amount of time and money our society has invested in electronic information management technology and the seemingly scant measurable increases in productivity. In fact, Erik Brynjolfsson analyzed this discrepancy in a 1993 article that popularized what has come to be called the productivity paradox. In the words of Yaacov Cohen, "Information technology that was designed at least in part to save time is doing precisely the opposite. The very tools we rely on to do our jobs are also interfering with that mission." As used in the passage, which one of the following could best be substituted for paradox without significantly changing the author's meaning? radio_button_unchecked Analysis radio_button_unchecked Crisis radio_button_unchecked Critique radio_button_unchecked Diatribe radio_button_unchecked Fallacy
