On line and on paper

The role of representation in the production of technoscientific knowledge has become a subject of great interest in recent years. In this book, sociologist and art critic Kathryn Henderson offers a new perspective on this topic by exploring the impact of computer graphic systems on the visual culture of engineering design. Henderson shows how designers use drawings both to organize work and knowledge and to recruit and organize resources, political support, and power.

המשפט הראשון: A senior drafter, recently promoted to engineer, fights with management to get her drawing board back, arguing, "I can't think without my drawing board."
