<br/><br/> Introduction to Philosophy of Technology by Mark Coeckelbergh is a clear and comprehensive guide to understanding how technology shapes and is shaped by society, ethics, and human experience. The book explores key philosophical traditions—such as phenomenology, critical theory, and pragmatism—while engaging with modern issues like AI, climate change, and digital media. It emphasizes that technology is not neutral and calls for deeper reflection on its ethical, social, and political dimensions. Designed for students and newcomers, it also connects philosophy of technology with broader fields like ethics, politics, and art.
