Philosophy and Engineering: An Emerging Agenda by Ibo Van De Poel

Whereas science, technology, and medicine have all called forth dedicated philosophical investigations, a fourth major contributor to the technoscientific world in which we all live - that is, engineering - has been accorded almost none of the philosophical attention it deserves.

From the reviews:

“It is the tangible outcome of the ‘Workshop on Philosophy and Engineering’ (WPE), which took place in October 2007 in Delft (The Netherlands)… If one wants to get an impression of the variety of topics that one might study in this new and emerging area, it is a great place to start. … a book … to browse through and to keep as a work of reference.”­­­ (Ilse Oosterlaken, Science and Engineering Ethics, Vol. 16, 2010)
