Stiegler and Technics

Since publication of Technics and Time, 2, it has been clear that Bernard Stiegler understood, more incisively than almost all of his contemporaries, that the technological is political. Howells and Moore have assembled an impressive range of commentaries around that idea, in all its complexity, tracing the contours of a rich field that gives Stiegler’s thinking its due, and laying out the terms for future discussion. * David Wills, Brown University *
This book is one of the most important collections published in Continental philosophy this year, bringing together many important thinkers to produce excellent forays into aesthetics, the nature of the self after deconstruction, political economy, and post-Freudian notions of desire ... Christina Howells and Gerald Moore are two of the best and most careful interpreters of contemporary Continental philosophy ... Each contributor here makes substantive and important claims about technology, political economy, aesthetics, and so on, with and beyond [Stiegler's] writings, so that this collection operates as a front seat to the most pertinent debates in recent Continental philosophy. -- Peter Gratton, Memorial University of Newfoundland * Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *
