		<title>Blogging Borgmann: TCCL Chapter 7, &#8220;The Scope of Scientific Explanation&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book At this point in our exploration of the relationship between modern science and technology, what can we say with confidence? First, that modern science shows us that the world exists in a large matrix of possible states of affairs. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book In this chapter we examine how far the validity of scientific explanation (the style of explanation called deductive-nomological) extends. Can there be any objections to the claim that scientific explanation is the proper mode of explanation for every question? [...]]]></description>

		<title>Relay: Is Technology Destroying Jobs?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From the &#8220;philosophy of technology not-so-deeply discussed&#8221; file comes this article from TechCrunch. It&#8217;s nice to see some of the ironic nature of technology considered: Many of us take for granted that technology is the brightest spot in the economy, where most of the innovation and job creation occurs. But if you look more broadly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book In this chapter we begin to look at the relationship of science and technology, by initiating an inquiry into the nature of science.

		<title>Blogging Borgmann: TCCL Chapter 3, &#8220;The Choice of a Theory&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book In this chapter, Borgmann is concerned to shore up the validity of the distinction between the substantive, instrumental, and pluralist views of technology. These distinctions carve up the possible theoretical space in a certain way, and Borgmann concedes that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Relay: The Divided Brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I felt compelled to break into the normal Blogging Borgmann schedule to share this wonderful video from the RSA (who puts on some amazing talks and sometimes has them animated in creative ways). It communicates a new perspective (from psychiatrist Iain McGilchrist) on the meaning of the left/right hemisphere division in the brain. As someone [...]]]></description>

		<title>Blogging Borgmann: TCCL Chapter 2, &#8220;Theories of Technology&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book Chapter 2 of TCCL consists of an overview of several existing theories of technology that Borgmann wants to use as partners in dialogue, in the process of constructing his own theory. The pre-theoretic, simplistic view of technology is pragmatic: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: This entry is part of a series where I am blogging chapter-by-chapter through the book In the first chapter of TCCL, Borgmann makes it clear that we need a theory of technology, not just an understanding of the practices involved in it. He says moreover that this study is going to be &#8220;philosophical&#8221;, especially [...]]]></description>

		<title>M.Phil.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After nearly two years of lectures, seminars, tutorials, assignments, papers, exams, and a thesis, I&#8217;m done with my MPhil in Linguistics at Oxford! (I technically won&#8217;t know whether I passed for another week or so, but since I&#8217;m confident I did my best on everything, it doesn&#8217;t matter to me much what happens at this [...]]]></description>
