Abstract	This book is about identifications, categorisations and distinctions. Primarily, it is about identifications, categorisations and distinctions made by philosophers of technology to conceptualise technology and technical functions and investigate their place in reality. The book criticises current trends of identifying objects based on their context-independent properties, by showing their practical irrelevance. The book proposes and develops an alternative approach, named activity realism, and argues that activity realism leads to a practically useful categorisations and identifications.
