Description

Explore the essential connection between philosophy and modern research with The Philosophy of Science and Technology Studies by Routledge. As the field of Science and Technology Studies (STS) matures, it often moves away from its original philosophical foundations. In this work, leading figure Steve Fuller addresses this shift, arguing that the discipline risks losing depth if it abandons its roots. Written in a provocative style, this book provides the first sustained treatment of the philosophical foundations of STS. It moves beyond simple observations to offer deep analysis and suggest new directions for future research. Readers will find engaging discussions regarding significant modern debates, including the Science Wars and the Intelligent Design Theory controversy. This text is an important resource for students, academics, and researchers who want to understand the underlying principles that shape how we study science and technology. By reconnecting STS with philosophy, Fuller provides a framework for more rigorous and meaningful inquiry in the field.
