Description

The book develops an Islamic account of technology with a particular emphasis on the tradition of virtue ethics.

In a rapidly advancing and religiously pluralistic world, the investigation of the intersection of technology and Islam is both timely and imperative. Ehsan Arzroomchilar addresses this critical gap in literature by delving into the multifaceted nature of Islam's engagement with technology. Across three parts (Plurality of Islam in a Pluralistic World; Nature and History of Approaches to Technology; Toward an Islamic Approach to Technology), this book weaves together historical, philosophical, religious, and ethical threads and provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of Islam's role in navigating the challenges and opportunities presented by our technological age.
