Appropriation is the process by which we turn digital technologies into instruments for our own use. In Appropriating Technology, Pierre Tchounikine explains that appropriation is constitutive of how we actually use things in practice and is different in nature from the initial process of learning to use a technology.

This book contains 32 Technology Briefs, each providing an overview of a topic that every electrical and computer engineering professional should become familiar with. Electronic displays, data storage media, sensors and actuators, supercapacitors, and 3-D imaging are typical of the topics shared with the reader. The Briefs are presented at a technical level intended to introduce the student to how the concepts in the chapter are applied in real-world applications and to interest the reader in pursuing the subject further on his/her own.
