Inhaltsangabe

The 13 essays in this book draw on a wide array of case studies from cooking stoves to missile systems, from 15th­century Portugal to today's AI labs - to outline an original research program based on a synthesis of ideas from the social studies of science and the history of technology.The impact of technology on society is clear and unmistakable.

Together they affirm the need for a study of technology that gives equal weight to technical, social, economic, and political questions.
