Philosophy of Technology - An Introduction

A good book, with plenty of information, but...

The writing is not as good as the contents: typos, cut&paste repetitions, redundant bits of information and some awkward sentences make the reader wish the text had been properly copy-edited by the publisher, especially given the fact that this is the second edition. And the philosophy is a bit too light: plenty of notes on a variety of topics, but the material could have been marshalled with a stronger hand.

On the whole, worth reading together with Ferre's textbook.
