This is a book for those inclined to go against the grain. It observes that recent philosophy of technology is broadly oriented towards an empirical horizon of actions, solutions, and innovations, thereby consistently favoring anticipation, construction, and design over introspection, speculative reason, and above all the existential question of the human subject. Against all proclamations of the latter being outmoded, deceased, and surpassed, Amelie Berger-Soraruff offers a thought-provoking discussion of human subjectivity and existence. -- Jochem Zwier, Managing Director 4TU Centre for Ethics and Technology, Wageningen University, Netherlands
