| Description: |
Presents and critiques work in the field of technoscience, by Andrew Pickering, Donna Haraway, Bruno Latour, and Don Ihde. Through their personal interviews and essays, their ideas are brought to bear on the question of materiality in technoscience. This book takes a look at the developments in technoscience. |
| Synopsis: |
Although often absent from the considerations of philosophers, sociologists, and anthropologists, the material dimension plays an important and even essential role in the practices of the sciences. "Chasing Technoscience: Matrix for Materiality" begins to redress this absence by bringing together four prominent figures who make technoscience, or science embodied in its technologies, a central theme of their work. Through lively personal interviews and substantive essays, the ideas of Andrew Pickering, Don Ihde, Donna Haraway, and Bruno Latour are brought to bear on the question of materiality in technoscience. The work of these theorists is then compared and critiqued in essays by colleagues. "Chasing Technoscience" is a ground-breaking, state-of-the-art look at current developments in technoscience. |
