Understanding computer science : how the discipline of computer science develops new understanding
Author(s): Noppers, Joke (2017)
Abstract:
The nature of computers and computer science has always puzzled me. Somehow, the emergence of computers and computer science has opened up a new perspective, a new way of thinking that enabled us to profoundly change the world we live in. But what kind of perspective did computer science open up? In my final thesis for the master’s program of Philosophy of Science, Technology and Society, I seek to understand this new kind of thinking.
