Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Feb 2021).
Though the old saying claims that man is the measure of all things, the authors of <i>Inside the Politics of Technology</i> argue that the distinction implied between autonomous humans and neutral instruments of technology is an illusion. On the contrary, the technologies humans create simultaneously shape humans themselves.By means of case studies of technologies as diverse as video cameras, electric cars, pregnancy tests, and genetic screenings, this volume considers the implications of this co-production of technology and society for our philosophical and political ideas. Are only humans endowed with social.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 269-291) and index.
