Hitting the Brakes: Engineering Design and the Production of Knowledge
Ann Johnson
Illuminates the social, historical, and cultural dynamics of engineering design, in which knowledge communities come together to produce new products and knowledge. Using the development of anti-lock braking systems for passenger cars as a case study, this book shows that the path to invention is neither linear nor top-down, but complicated.
