In contrast to followers of the idea that the centre of the modern picture of the world is technologies or synthesis of technologies the article supports the idea that such centre is man and human type of attitude to the world with its links with nature, society and culture. The novelty of this picture of the world is determined by its eco-philosophic foundation and content, which caused the need to revise the content of its categories.
