Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the interplay between social and cognitive processes during the development of a technology. The author introduces a socio-cognitive model of technology evolution and uses cochlear implants as a case study. The model suggests that beliefs about what is feasible shape the creation and evaluation of technological artifacts, which in turn influence future beliefs. Through historical analysis, the book demonstrates the reciprocal relationship between beliefs, artifacts, and evaluation routines. The author argues that this model reveals the paradoxical struggle researchers face in establishing new technologies. To achieve individual recognition, they develop their own realities, which then become self-reinforcing. However, this can hinder their ability to embrace shared realities that emerge later. The book concludes by highlighting how well this paradox is managed can profoundly impact the success or failure of a technology in its early stages. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780243215096_0
