Beschreibung
"Giddings explores the histories of toys and unpacks their relationship with technology, arguing that toys and play have always been technological and provide a unique framework to construct a philosophy of technology based around play rather than around tools. What if, this book asks, we rethink the anthropology and the philosophy of technology as driven by play and aesthetics rather than an immanent desire for control?"--
