What is 'technology'? What does it help us to do? What does it
force us to consider about our experience of being in the world? In
Challenging the Phenomena of Technology, technology is positioned
as an experience with specific features, rather than as a class of
objects, and this enables a reflection on the ways in which
amateurs and experts interact with the artefacts that all humans
rely upon. Using e-readers, such as the Kindle and iPad, as a case
study, Hayler argues that the use of technology is both more
complicated and more human than public discussion often gives it
credit for, forcing us to consider its impacts on perception,
cognition, and what it means to know anything at all.
