This first book-length study in the philosophy of technical artefacts and their technical functions presents a new action-theoretical account of using and designing called the ICE theory. This theory connects the material side of technical artefacts with the aims of everyday users and the tasks of engineers when designing for those everyday users.
Wybo Houkes and Pieter Vermaas have developed ICE theory in close contact with the engineering literature on designing and the literature on functions in the philosophy of biology and philosophy of mind. As such the book is a telling example of the successful new school of philosophy of technology that is aimed at understanding engineering and technology on their own merits.
The book presents the reader with a broad and detailed understanding of technical artefacts and their functions, which is sensitive to the dynamic and socially structured practices of using and designing. This understanding shows how our technology-saturated everyday life can be subjected to rigorous philosophical analysis, and how artefacts and technical functions provide an area of inquiry that is equally fascinating as, but genuinely different from, biological items and their functions.
First book-length study of technical artefacts and their functions State-of-the-art resources in analytical philosophy, such as the planning theory of action and analyses of testimony Provides a framework for describing and evaluating artefact use and design First and only theory of artefact functions that is faithful to the phenomenology of artefact use Positioning of the functions of artefacts against those of biological items Typical example of the new school of philosophy of technology that studies engineering and technology on its own merits
