Husserl's Missing Technologies looks at the early-twentieth-century
"classical" phenomenology of Edmund Husserl, both in the light of
the philosophy of science of his time, and retrospectively at his
philosophy from a contemporary "postphenomenology." Of central
interest are his infrequent comments upon technologies and
especially scientific instruments such as the telescope and
microscope. Together with his analysis of Husserl, Don Ihde
ventures through the recent history of technologies of science,
reading and writing, and science praxis, calling for modifications
to phenomenology by converging it with pragmatism. This fruitful
hybridization emphasizes human-technology interrelationships, the
role of embodiment and bodily skills, and the inherent
multistability of technologies. In a radical argument, Ihde
contends that philosophies, in the same way that various
technologies contain an ever-shortening obsolescence, ought to have
contingent use-lives.
