Description

This book is a collection of essays by Andrew Feenberg, most of which were written over the past decade, focusing on the issue of technology. The book can be divided into three main sections. The first part, titled Philosophy of Technology, includes three essays that introduce Feenberg’s Critical Theory of Technology and compare it with other prevailing approaches in the field. The second part, The Technical Citizen, features three essays offering a deeper analysis of the challenges of modernity and discusses the opportunities individuals have in a technologically centered society. The third part explores the arguments of Heidegger and Marcuse, including essays that critically examine their classical critiques of technology.
