Abstract

"El pensamiento sobre la técnica en México" is a collection of essays that explores the history of technological thought in Mexico. The book covers a wide range of topics and time periods, with chapters focusing on philosophers such as José Gaos, Emilio Uranga, José Revueltas, Octavio Paz, Samuel Ramos, Fabián Giménez Gatto, and Naief Yehya. The strongest contributions are the chapters on Samuel Ramos, Emilio Uranga, and José Revueltas, which provide insights into their reflections on technology and its implications. While the book lacks a coherent reflection on studying technology in Mexico, it offers valuable contributions to the history of technological thought in the country and highlights the need for further research in this area.
