In a world of information technologies, genetic engineering,
controversies about established science, and the mysteries of
quantum physics, it is at once seemingly impossible and absolutely
vital to find ways to make sense of how science, technology, and
society connect. In Feedback Loops: Pragmatism about Science &
Technology, editors Andrew Wells Garnar and Ashley Shew bring
together original writing from philosophers and science and
technology studies scholars to provide novel ways of rethinking the
relationships between science, technology, education, and society.
Through critiquing and exploring the work of philosopher of science
and technology Joseph C. Pitt, the authors featured in this volume
explore the complexities of contemporary technoscience, writing on
topics ranging from super-computing to pedagogy, engineering to
biotechnology patents, and scientific instruments to disability
studies. Taken together, these chapters develop an argument about
the necessity of using pragmatism to foster a more productive
relationship between science, technology and society.
