The sophistication of these  papers indicates the maturity of the field as it moves away from the  advocacy of anti-technology ideological posturing toward a deeper  understanding of the options and restraints technological developments  provide. \u003cbr\u003e  The papers presented here take us over a threshold into the real world  of complicated social and technological interactions where science and  art are shown to be integral to our understanding of technological  change, and technological innovations are seen as configuring our  knowledge of the world and opening up new possibilities for human  development. With its rich historical base, this volume will be of  interest to all students concerned about the interactions among  technology, society, and philosophy.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31 July 1995\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Netherlands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9780792336617\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e225\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50803464568972,"sku":"9780792336617","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792336617.jpg?v=1781753121","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792336617","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
