Technoscience and Postphenomenology

The Manhattan Papers

Edited by Jan Kyrre Berg Friis and Robert P. Crease - Contributions by Lars Botin; Anette Forss; Michael Funk; Cathrine Hasse; Stacy O. Irwin; Roisin Lally; Srikanth Mallavarapu; Eduardo Mendieta; Junichi Murata; Shoji Nagataki; Kyle Powys Whyte; Robert Rosenberger; Robert C. Scharff; Evan Selinger; Shannon Vallor; Peter-Paul Verbeek and Galit Wellner

Friis and Crease capture Postphenomenology, a new field that has attracted attention among scholars engaged in technology studies. Contributors to this edited collection seek to analyze, clarify, and develop postphenomenological language and concepts, expand the work of Don Ihde, the field's founder, and scout into fields that Ihde never tackled.

Many of the contributors to this collection had especially close ties to Ihde and have benefited from close work with him. This combined with the distinctive diversity of the contributors—18 people from 10 different countries—enables this volume to put on display the diversity of content and styles in this young movement.
