Jacques Ellul in the "The Technological Society" makes the point that the development of magic is a form of technology.

The precision given to incantations and the exactness of potions is in a way the development of formulaic necessity and such stories, or practices, a good way to transmit it's usefulness for future generations. This exact process, with this exact ingredients, yields this exact thing.
