This book discusses the relationship between the philosophy of
science and philosophy of engineering, and demonstrates how
philosophers of engineering design as well as design researchers
can benefit from the conceptual toolkit that the philosophy of
science has to offer. In this regard, it employs conceptual tools
from the philosophical literature on scientific explanation to
address key issues in engineering design and philosophy of
engineering design. Specifically, the book focuses on assessing the
explanatory value of function ascriptions used in engineering
design and philosophy of technical functions; on elaborating the
structure of explanation in engineering design; on assessing the
role and value of design representations in engineering design and
philosophy thereof; and on elaborating means for the testing of
design methods. Presenting a novel and effective approach to
tackling key issues in the field, philosophers of engineering and
design alike will greatly benefit from this book.
