Wealth from Knowledge: Studies of Innovation in Industry
ISBN: 9781349010561 / Angielski / Miękka / 477 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is based on a study of 84 technological innovations that won Queen's Awards in 1966 and 1967. Nearly 40 of these are presented as well-documented but readable case histories. The topics range from new antibiotics to fast patrol boats, from an improved way of making bread to aircraft equipment, from new building materials and techniques to scientific instruments, from automatic gearboxes to guided missiles. Many points of interest are covered in the discussion. Is innovation more often 'pushed' by scientific or technological discoveries or more often 'pulled' by the needs of the...

mathematics and culture in europe: mathematics in art, technology, cinema, and theatre
ISBN: 9783540719632 / Angielski / Mixed media product / 405 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is not true that mathematics has never been able to arouse people's interest. At least, this is our feeling as mathematicians when we meet the general public to explain what we are dealing with in our work, what is the usefulness of mathematics and how it becomes possible to catch its harmony and beauty. Also the cinema changed its attitude on the matter, and some screenplays started to show mathematicians engaged in their work while some recent theatrical pieces have a mathematician as a main character. These considerations stimulated some of us to organize the review... It is not true that mathematics has never been able to arouse people's interest.

Technics and Praxis: A Philosophy of Technology
ISBN: 9789027709530 / Angielski / Twarda / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Depending on how one construes the kinship relations, technology has been either the stepchild of philosophy or its grandfather. In either case, technology has not been taken into the bosom of the family, but has had to wait for attention, care and feeding, while the more unclear elements - science, art, politics, ethics - were being nurtured (or cleaned up). Don Ihde puts technology in the middle of things, and develops a philosophy of technology that is at once distinctive, revealing and thought- provoking. Typically, philosophy of technology has existed at, or beyond, the margins of the...
