Reviews / Votes
"This volume not only represents an impressive contribution to the philosophy of technology, but also helps serve to further define this lively field of inquiry. It shows how philosophical questions about technology abound within familiar spheres of human interaction such as art and religion, as well as in new spaces created by technology such as virtual reality. With insightful and accessibly-written essays from a diversity of theoretical perspectives, this work promises to be an excellent resource both for inspiring classroom discussion and for future scholarly research."--Diane Michelfelder, Macalester College
