Ein Goldfisch, der komponiert und bunte Bilder malt, Blutegel, die rechnen - Geniestreiche von Natur oder Wissenschaft? Ein Mensch, der sich mit seinem PC vernetzt und "telepathischen" Kontakt aufbaut - Vision oder Wirklichkeit? In Zeiten von Mnemonic und Matrix scheinen Realität und Zukunftsphantasien immer mehr zu verwischen. Was ist wirklich dran an Chipimplantaten, an Horrorszenarien von der Machtübernahme durch Roboter, am ewigen Leben im Netz? Wie kann unsere Welt von morgen aussehen? Künstliches Leben: Die Annäherung von Mensch und Maschine ist längst kein Hirngespinst mehr, Golem erwacht zum Leben, Big Blue ist Alltag und erstaunt niemanden mehr. Doch die Diskussion muss über rein technische Fragestellungen hinaus weiter reichen, muss die philosophisch-ethische Dimension des "Was soll ich tun?" umfassen. Wie weit darf die Wissenschaft gehen, um ihren Erkennntistrieb zu befriedigen? Nichts zuletzt überstrahlt die Faszination an der schönen neuen Welt, die kindliche Technikgläubigkeit der Menschheit, die Folgen des Fortschritts. Damit sind nicht nur schwer kalkulierbare Risiken als Folge bioinformatischer Innovationen gemeint, sondern durchaus auch andere Zweckgegebenheiten von Neuroimplantaten und Co.: Heute schon werden Datenschutz, anonyme Personenerfassungssysteme etc. heiß diskutiert. Das spannende Aufgabenspektrum der Bioinformatik reicht weit - noch fesselnder sind die technisch-philosophischen Fragen, die sich daraus ergeben. "Die künstliche Evolution der Cyborgs: erkenntnistheoretische Aspekte der Bioinformatik" gibt einen Überblick über den aktuellen Stand bioinformatischer Ansätze und Lösungswege aus dem Dilemma Stillstand/Fortschrittsrisiko.

This book brings together five encounters. They include the date or signature and its singularity; the notion of the trace; structures of futurity and the "to come"; language and questions of translation; such speech acts as testimony and promising; the possibility of the impossible; and the poem as addressed and destined beyond knowledge.

This book reports on cutting-edge research and best practices in developing innovative service systems. It covers issues concerning the suitability of a given system for human use, human services, and excellent human experiences. It explores a wide range of ways in which human factors in engineering, ergonomics, human–computer interaction (HCI), cognitive engineering, and many other disciplines can contribute to the design and management of service systems. It considers aspects related to cost effectiveness, ethics, and privacy, among others, and covers applications in many areas, from healthcare to education, transportation, and the economy. Based on the AHFE 2020 Virtual Conference on the Human Side of Service Engineering, held on July 16–20, 2020, the book provides readers with a comprehensive overview of current research and future challenges in the field of service engineering, together with practical insights into the development of innovative services for various kinds of organizations.

What role does gender play in scientific research and the development of technologies? This book provides methodological expertise, research experiences and empirical findings in the dynamic field of Science and Technology Studies. The authors, coming from computer science, social sciences, or cultural studies of science, discuss how to ask questions about gender and give examples for the application in interdisciplinary research, development and teaching. Topics range from the design of information and communication technologies, epistemologies of biology and chemistry to teaching mathematics and professional processes in engineering. Contributions by Anne Balsamo, Wendy Faulkner, Rebecca Jordan-Young, Barbara Orland, Els Rommes, and others.

Evolutionary science lies at the heart of a modern understanding of the natural world. Darwin’s theory has withstood 150 years of scientific scrutiny, and today it not only explains the origin and design of living things, but highlights the importance of a scientific understanding in our culture and in our lives. Recently the movement known as “Intelligent Design” has attracted the attention of journalists, educators, and legislators. The scientific community is puzzled and saddened by this trend–not only because it distorts modern biology, but also because it diverts people from the truly fascinating ideas emerging from the real science of evolution. Here, join fifteen of our preeminent thinkers whose clear, accessible, and passionate essays reveal the fact and power of Darwin’s theory, and the beauty of the scientific quest to understand our world.

From Robocop to the Terminator to Eve 8, no image better captures our deepest fears about technology than the cyborg, the person who is both flesh and metal, brain and electronics. But philosopher and cognitive scientist Andy Clark sees it differently. Cyborgs, he writes, are not something to be feared--we already are cyborgs. In Natural-Born Cyborgs, Clark argues that what makes humans so different from other species is our capacity to fully incorporate tools and supporting cultural practices into our existence. Technology as simple as writing on a sketchpad, as familiar as Google or a cellular phone, and as potentially revolutionary as mind-extending neural implants--all exploit our brains' astonishingly plastic nature. Our minds are primed to seek out and incorporate non-biological resources, so that we actually think and feel through our best technologies. Drawing on his expertise in cognitive science, Clark demonstrates that our sense of self and of physical presence can be expanded to a remarkable extent, placing the long-existing telephone and the emerging technology of telepresence on the same continuum. He explores ways in which we have adapted our lives to make use of technology (the measurement of time, for example, has wrought enormous changes in human existence), as well as ways in which increasingly fluid technologies can adapt to individual users during normal use. Bio-technological unions, Clark argues, are evolving with a speed never seen before in history. As we enter an age of wearable computers, sensory augmentation, wireless devices, intelligent environments, thought-controlled prosthetics, and rapid-fire information search and retrieval, the line between the user and her tools grows thinner day by day. "This double whammy of plastic brains and increasingly responsive and well-fitted tools creates an unprecedented opportunity for ever-closer kinds of human-machine merger," he writes, arguing that such a merger is entirely natural. A stunning new look at the human brain and the human self, Natural Born Cyborgs reveals how our technology is indeed inseparable from who we are and how we think.

Lost in the raging debate over the validity of social construction is the question of what, precisely, is being constructed. Facts, gender, quarks, reality? Ian Hacking’s book explores an array of examples to reveal the deep issues underlying contentious accounts of reality—especially regarding the status of the natural sciences.
