Talking about Machines: The Emergence of an Independent Women's Movement in America, 1848-1869 Paperback - 1996 - 1st Edition
by Julian E. Orr
From the publisher
From the rear cover
This is a story of how work gets done. It is also a study of how field service technicians talk about their work and how that talk is instrumental in their success. In his innovative ethnography, Julian E. Orr studies the people who repair photocopiers and shares vignettes from their daily lives. He characterizes their work as a continuous highly skilled improvisation within a triangular relationship of technician, customer, and machine.
