Opis

This book develops a hermeneutic approach to the digital—as both a technological milieu and a cultural phenomenon. While philosophical in its orientation, it covers a wide body of literature across science and technology studies, media studies, digital humanities, digital sociology, cognitive science, and the study of artificial intelligence.

Recenzje

The author presents new and refreshing ideas that will engage and provoke academics from both humanities and the social sciences." – Jan Kyrre Berg Friis, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
