技术哲学试图清晰地阐述技术(即制造和使用人工物)的本质及其意义。在区别于科学哲学的技术哲学的思想发展上,德索尔(F.Desseauer)是位重要人物。科学哲学一般表现为下列两种形式之一:第一种是在总体上分析科学知识的结构及其有效性;第二种则关注具体的理论(如哥白尼的天文学和达尔文的进化论),以推究宇宙的本质和人类在其中的位置。在德索尔看来,这两种形式的研究都未能论及科学—技术知识力 Philosophy of technology seeks to clearly articulate the nature of technology (ie, the manufacture and use of artifacts) and its significance. F. Desseauer is an important figure in the development of the philosophy of technology distinguished from the philosophy of science. The philosophy of science generally manifests itself in one of two forms: the first is a general analysis of the structure and effectiveness of scientific knowledge; the second focuses on specific theories (such as Copernicus's astronomy and Darwin's theory of evolution) To infer the nature of the universe and where human beings are located. In De Sol's opinion, neither form of research deals with scientific-technological knowledge
