Focused on theoretical advances and debates in science and technology, with numerous empirical studies and examples, this volume is an accessible and wide-ranging introduction to the study of science and technology. The opening chapters of the book provide an historical background for the emergence of the field, while the remaining chapters focus on discussion of central topics such as realism and social construction, discourse and rhetoric, objectivity, the role of experiment and theory, controversies, and the critique of science and technology. Paying special attention to the underlying philosophical and sociological aspects of science and technology, this is a useful guide for those new to this area of study.
