Philosophy, science, and technology. A tribute to the philosopher Evandro Agazzi


 


“It would take us too far to analyze the causes of this cultural phenomenon which, in substance, is a consequence of the great social prestige that science has acquired [...] from its impressive technological applications. In the wake of these often unforeseen and astonishing applications, there gradually came about an almost complete identification between science and technology, accompanied by a similar identification of the very idea of progress with technological development.”


Evandro Agazzi, The Knowledge of the Invisible.
