    Series series Postphenomenology and the Philosophy of Technology
    In a world of information technologies, genetic engineering, controversies about established science, and the mysteries of quantum physics, it is at once seemingly impossible and absolutely vital to find ways to make sense of how science, technology, and society connect.

  • Heraclitus Redux: Technological Infrastructures and Scientific Change

    de Joseph C. Pitt ...
    Series series Collective Studies in Knowledge and Society
    Scientific change is often a function of technological innovation – new instruments show us new things we could not see before and we then need new theories to explain them. One of the results of this process is that what counts as scientific evidence changes, and how we do our science changes. Hitherto the technologies which make contemporary science possible have been ignored. This book aims to ... Leer más

  • Doing Philosophy of Technology

    Essays in a Pragmatist Spirit

    de Joseph C. Pitt ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    As science becomes more deeply embedded in a complex technological infrastructure, has this changed the relationship between the sciences and the various technologies that support them? As our technologies help shrink our world, can we restrict our ethical concerns or must we find a way to face the fact that we are now one world? What do new forms of architecture say about whom we are? Is the ... Leer más

  • Pictures, Images, and Conceptual Change

    An Analysis of Wilfrid Sellars’ Philosophy of Science

    de Joseph C. Pitt ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    In this essay I am concerned with the problem of conceptual change. There are, needless to say, many ways to approach the issue. But, as I see it, the problem reduces to showing how present and future systems of thought are the rational extensions of prior ones. This goal may not be attainable. Kuhn, for example, suggests that change is mainly a function of socio-economic pressures (taken broadly) ... Leer más

  • Rational Changes in Science

    Essays on Scientific Reasoning

    Edición de Joseph C. Pitt, Marcello Pera ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    THE PROBLEMS OF SCIENTIFIC RATIONALITY Fashion is a fickle mistress. Only yesterday scientific rationality enjoyed considerable attention, consideration, and even reverence among phi losophers; "but today's fashion leads us to despise it, and the matron, rejected and abandoned as Hecuba, complains; modo maxima rerum, tot generis natisque potens - nunc trahor exui, inops", to cite Kant for our ...

  • Technological Transformation

    Contextual and Conceptual Implications

    Edición de E.F. Byrne, Joseph C. Pitt ...
    Series Libro 5 - Philosophy and Technology
    The philosophical study of technology has acquired only recently a voice in academic conversation. This situation is due, in part, to the fact that technology obviously impacts on "the real world," whereas the favored stereotype of philosophy allegedly does not. Furthermore, in some circles it was assumed that philosophy ought not impinge on the world. This bias continues today in the form of a ... Leer más

  • New Directions in the Philosophy of Technology

    Edición de Joseph C. Pitt ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    In this collection we finally find the philosophy of technology, a young and rapidly developing area of scholarly interest, making contact with history of science and technology, and mainstream epistemological and metaphysical issues. 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 ... Leer más
