Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Discover a surprising convergence between Karl Popper's New Enlightenment and the ancient philosophy of the Middle Way-two approaches that reject extremes and embrace flexibility, uncertainty, and continuous learning. Rather than chasing absolute truths, both philosophies promote a dynamic process of forming hypotheses, testing them against reality, adjusting, and striving for progress without claiming final answers. As Aristotle observed, true excellence lies in finding the balanced middle. In Karl Popper and the Philosophy of the Middle Way, author Yechiel Gilboa skillfully explores these ideas through the works of Confucius, Aristotle, Maimonides, and Popper, alongside real-world examples from technology, business, and global communication. This book offers practical insights for navigating complex decisions and bridging the deepening divides of modern society. Drawing from Jewish philosophy and contemporary challenges, it provides a timely guide for anyone seeking wisdom in an increasingly polarized world.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The discussion in the philosophy of technology began in the mid-20th century following the accelerated technological development during the World Wars. Today, technology's influence is evident at all levels, and its budgets are incomparably larger than those of science. Moreover, a significant portion of contemporary science is applied science derived from technological requirements, and the order in which technology was derived from science has been replaced by an order in which science is driven by technology. Technological development has reached a point where, on one hand, its efficiency for human and societal welfare continues to grow, while on the other hand, the dangers it poses to humanity are multiplying. In this state of affairs, the question of rationality in the technological development process, with its unique characteristics, is of great importance. Science is attributed to theory and perceived as rational, while technology remains in the background, with very limited philosophical discussion about it. The scientific development process usually takes place in a one-dimensional physical space where theories are tested against the world through observations and experiments. In contrast, the technological development process occurs in a multi-dimensional space where the human factor plays a central role; technology depends on society, on needs, environment, culture, politics, the space in which it is developed, and those who use it - but there is no factor comparable to the scientific community that critiques the process, except for its consumers. The lack of discussion about the rationality of the technological development process can cause harm in any technological-business firm, in entire disciplinary fields, and in society as a whole. For example, the global digital processor field became addicted to Moore's Law from its inception, according to which it was estimated that approximately every 18 months, processor speeds and digital memory capacities would double. However, technology has reached a breaking point, and this process cannot continue for much longer. The question arises: How did it happen that giant companies in the field, such as Intel, IBM, and AMD, did not attempt to challenge this strategy The world today faces a problem in the computing field-the solution may be quantum computing, but we will need to wait a long time for that.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. From its inception, science has been attributed to theory and perceived as rational, while technology was perceived as scientific application. The conception of knowledge was hierarchical: scientific knowledge was associated with theory, which was associated with philosophy-pure and sublime knowledge, as opposed to technological knowledge, which was identified with practice. However, in recent decades this situation has been changing at an accelerated pace-technology constitutes an increasingly significant component in every area of our lives; engagement with it encompasses most of humanity-as developers and as users, and its applications continue to multiply. The philosophy of technology, which describes and critiques technology, is still in its early stages. From the mid-20th century, philosophers began to take an interest in it, due to the accelerating technological development that stemmed mainly from the world wars and the Cold War. Today, the influence of technology is evident at all levels, and its budgets are incomparably larger than science budgets. Moreover, today a large part of science is applied science, derived both in its requirements and in its budgets from technological demands and technological budgets, and the order whereby technology derives from science has been replaced by an order whereby science is driven by technology. With the beginning of the emergence of the philosophy of technology as a separate discipline, it focused on its effects on humans, society, and culture, while epistemological and methodological questions regarding technology were studied only minimally. Philosophers treated technology as a given, taken for granted, as a black box, and did not descend to the level of analyzing its content, essence, and manner of formation. Today, the growing interest in technology leads to philosophical analysis of the epistemological basis of engineering knowledge and to research of practical development. According to Walter Vincenti, technology is an autonomous discipline, a different and separate domain, which includes knowledge richer and more interesting than mere scientific application, a field of knowledge that is not just a collection of tools that were once developed through trial and error and are now developed through scientific application. In the social aspect, the discussion of control and governance processes in technology is in its early stages, and it does not appear that the main actors engaged in technology-governments, schools of engineering and management, and managers of technological-business firms in industry-are devoting the full attention required to this. In the field of engineering, the conception is primarily scientific; in the field of management, the conception is focused on scientific-technocratic management; and in industry, the conception is primarily instrumental rationality, with a short-term view. The interdisciplinary view of technology, which includes the physical, managerial, sociological, and philosophical aspects, enables providing a more "correct" response to the engineering problems at hand and enables more controlled processes of technological development, for the benefit of society, reducing harm to it, and especially advancing solutions to the growing dangers that technology poses to the human species.
