It integrates disparate areas of debate and research while appreciating the contribution that philosophy can make to such thinking. It is deliberately broad in coverage, and designed to provide useful pointers so that researchers, students, practitioners, and developers can easily apply each point as needed. \"Human issues of technology and their normative aspects\" is a theme that runs throughout the entire book.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe integrative vision is centered on an understanding of human practice -- the twin notions of structure and direction, and the leading and the founding functions of such practice. While this understanding applies to all technologies, it is worked out in more detail for information technology. From this philosophical understanding, many interdisciplinary areas of interest are identified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sytse Strijbos\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0387321500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780387321509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Sytse Strijbos","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47421685465343,"sku":"9780387321509","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bca56a99-3cf4-4b71-b182-658f083e5a9f.jpg?v=1761527097","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-search-of-an-integrative-sytse-strijbos-9780387321509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
