Introduction To Philosophy Of Technology by Mark Coeckelbergh, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This introduction to philosophy of technology textbook will be the most up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the field available. Like currently available textbooks, it offers an overview of some of the most frequently used "classic" theories and approaches. But it goes further than thesebooks, offering a broader range of theories and a much needed update of the theories. It also takes into account a number of new dynamics in the field, including responding to new technological developments. Emphasis is put on (1) how new technological developments stimulate philosophical thinkingand rethinking and (2) how philosophers of technology could do more to interact with other subdisciplines in philosophy. As some reviewers have noted, the book addresses the technological opportunities and challenges of the 21st century and is a model of philosophical clarity. It is an idealtextbook for philosophy of technology courses taught in philosophy and history of science and technology departments, and sometimes in computer science, communications, and other departments. MESSAGE: A current and comprehensive overview of the field. | Introduction To Philosophy Of Technology by Mark Coeckelbergh, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
