ICON

ICON, a refereed journal of about 200 pages, is published once a year and contains mainly, but not ex­clusively, revised versions of papers given at ICOHTEC Symposia.
ICOHTEC intends to continue to be a forum for discus­sing the topics in the history of techno­logy. But it also hopes to devote special attention to the discussion of present-day problems of technology and their relationship to socio-eco­nomic, political, environmental, and cultural issues.
