{"product_id":"9781498520485","title":"Technological Forms and Ecological Communication: A Theoretical Heuristic","description":"Investigating the phenomena of technology, science, technique, and mass communication, Piyush Mathur contends that the enterprise of science communication may be misleading vis-à-vis technology—if in part because it frequently coextends with a flawed, but dominant, notion of science that presumptuously implicates technology anyway. Grappling with what authentically constitutes science and the prospective effects of its realization on a global future of mass communication, Mathur explores how various technological forms play specifically into ecologically sensitive mass communication. The result is an eco-communicative theory of technology that includes its classification based upon a set of qualitative principles and a profile of the notion of development. On the whole, though, Technological Forms and Ecological Communication: A Theoretical Heuristic brings the fields of philosophy and history of science, philosophy and sociology of technology, communication studies, and development studies into conversation with one another.","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47132073066736,"sku":"9781498520485","price":104.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781498520485_p0.jpg?v=1769896458","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781498520485","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
