It is also intended for engineers working both inside and outside of academia who would like to gain a more fundamental understanding of their particular professional field. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe increasing development of new technologies, such as autonomous vehicles, and new interdisciplinary fields, such as human-computer interaction, calls not only for philosophical inquiry but also for engineers and philosophers to work in collaboration with one another. At the same time, the demands on engineers to respond to the challenges of world health, climate change, poverty, and other so-called \"wicked problems\" have also been on the rise. These factors, together with the fact that a host of questions concerning the processes by which technologies are developed have arisen, make the current \u003ci\u003eHandbook\u003c\/i\u003e a timely and valuable publication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiane P.
