Produktbeschreibung

Hand's End offers a new philosophy of technology as the fundamental way in which humans experience and define nature-the tool as humanity extended. Rothenberg examines human inventions from the water wheel to the nuclear bomb and discusses theories of technology in the thought of philosophers including Plato, Aristotle, Bacon, Marx, Heidegger, Spinoza, Mumford, and McLuhan.
