The book "Modes Travaux" by French philosopher and sociologist Bruno Latour presents a unique perspective on the relationship between technology and society. The author argues that technology has evolved over time, shaping our understanding of the world and influencing our actions. He suggests that we need to study and understand the process of technological evolution to ensure the survival of humanity and the unity of people in a divided world. The book is divided into three parts: the first part explores the concept of modes of work, which are the ways in which humans have used technology throughout history; the second part examines the role of technology in shaping our understanding of the world; and the third part discusses the implications of these ideas for contemporary society. In the first part of the book, Latour explains that there have been several modes of work throughout history, each with its own set of tools and techniques. For example, the agricultural mode of work involved farming and animal husbandry, while the industrial mode of work focused on manufacturing and production. Each mode of work has had a profound impact on society, shaping our understanding of the world and influencing our actions. In the second part of the book, Latour examines how technology has influenced our understanding of the world.
