Abstract
It is a very old and serious question in philosophy—not only within the Western context—how knowledge and practice are interrelated. So the basic question of any philosophy of technology is how to analyze the relation between science, technology itself, and practice. Since the beginnings of culture, mankind has acquired knowledge about nature, and our ancestors have talked about knowledge in the form of myths, theogonies, and cosmogonies, as well as stories and ballads, and much later in the form of written manuscripts and philosophical dialogues. In modern times we hand on our knowledge about nature in the form of protocols, based on experiments, observations, and theories. Moreover we use mathematical formalisms as a tool to describe our forecasts and explanations more precisely.
