This book provides a significant contribution to scholarship on the
psychology of science and the psychology of technology by
showcasing a range of theory and research distinguished as
psychological studies of science and technology. Science and
technology are central to almost all domains of human activity, for
which reason they are the focus of subdisciplines such as
philosophy of science, philosophy of technology, sociology of
knowledge, and history of science and technology. To date,
psychology has been marginal in this space and limited to
relatively narrow epistemological orientations. By explicitly
embracing pluralism and an international approach, this book offers
new perspectives and directions for psychological contributions.
The book brings together leading theorists and researchers from
around the world and spans scholarship across a variety of
traditions that include theoretical psychology, critical
psychology, feminist psychology and social constructionist
approaches. Following a historical and conceptual introduction, the
collection is divided into three sections: Scoping a New Psychology
of Science and Technology, Applying Psychological Concepts to the
Study of Science and Technology and Critical Perspectives on
Psychology as a Science. The book will interest interdisciplinary
scholars who work in the space of Science and Technology Studies
and psychologists interested in the diverse human aspects of
science and technology.
