(1993) Philosophy of technology in Spanish speaking countries, Dordrecht, Springer.
It is often said that the contemporary world is greatly influenced by science. From the most obvious point of view, this influence is manifested in the products of technology. The contemporary world presents the phenomenon of a growing population of technological objects. These objects are artifically produced in two ways: through the non-natural creation of objects similar to natural ones — the industrial chemical synthesis of a natural substance, for example — or through the non-natural creation of non-natural objects — an airplane or locomotive, for example.
