Philosophy of Engineering and Technology

Fox, Alice; Cressman, Darryl

This volume represents the breadth of Langdon Winner’s influence and includes chapters from a wide range of scholars from the global north and south working in the fields of engineering, philosophy, STS, and sociology on broad applications, from technological sleepwalking to atmospheric marketing.  As resistance is a central thread throughout all of Winner’s work, these contributions challenge hegemony and reimagine the way things are into the way things might be. The authors provide insights on how Winner’s work continues to remain relevant and insightful in the face of new and emerging technologies.  It appeals broadly to students and researchers and is broken down into three Sections: Theoretical Approaches, Applications, and Pushing Boundaries.
