Sommario/riassunto: In this book, contributors from across the social sciences focus on everyday objects and how these objects enter our activities over the course of time. Using a combination of different theoretical approaches, the book argues against the standard notion of objects and their properties as inert and meaningless, and for the need to understand the relations between people and objects in terms of process and change.
