Joseph C. Pitt, a Fellow of AAAS, has been teaching at Virginia Tech for 45 years. His major area of scholarship is philosophy of technology with an emphasis on the impact of technological innovation on scientific change. He is the author of 4 books and the editor/co-editor of twelve others. He is past president of the Society for Philosophy and Technology and served as Editor-in-Chief of Techne: Research in Philosophy and Technology, of which he is currently on the editorial board. Ashley Shew works in philosophy of technology on topics relating to emerging technologies, animals, disability, and environment. Her first book, Animal Constructions and Technological Knowledge, will be published next year. Her latest work concerns how disabled bodies are used in technological imagination and how narratives about technology often fail to match up to the lived experience of disability. She collects class materials and information about disability and technology on her website, http://techanddisability.com.

"This volume not only represents an impressive contribution to the philosophy of technology, but also helps serve to further define this lively field of inquiry. It shows how philosophical questions about technology abound within familiar spheres of human interaction such as art and religion, as well as in new spaces created by technology such as virtual reality. With insightful and accessibly-written essays from a diversity of theoretical perspectives, this work promises to be an excellent resource both for inspiring classroom discussion and for future scholarly research."--Diane Michelfelder, Macalester College
