Explaining Technical Change: A Case Study in the Philosophy of Science - Studies in Rationality and Social Change
Jon Elster
Technical change, defined as the manufacture and modification of tools, is generally thought to have played an important role in the evolution of intelligent life on earth, comparable to that of language. In this volume, first published in 1983, Jon Elster approaches the study of technical change from an epistemological perspective.
