Philosophy and Technology Paperback / softback
by Roger (University of Bradford) Fellows
Part of the Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplements series
Paperback / softback
Description
This collection of essays examines the philosophical and cultural aspects of technology.
The issues range widely - from quantum technology to problems of technology and culture in a developing country and contributors approach the issues from a variety of perspectives.
The volume includes case-studies, and also more theoretical pieces which consider the fundamental question of whether technology should be perceived as a force for liberation or enslavement.
The volume aims to stimulate debate about the relation between technology and philosophy and society in general, and to open a field of enquiry that has been relatively neglected.
Written in an accessible style, the contributions are intended equally for philosophers exploring the novel problems arising in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, but also for technologists interested in the philosophical implications of their work.
