This collection of essays, including one by Simondon himself, outlines the central tenets of Simondon's thought, the implication of his thought for numerous disciplines and his relationship to other thinkers such as Heidegger, Deleuze and Canguilhem. Complete with a contextualising introduction and a glossary of technical terms, it offers an entry point to this important thinker and will appeal to people working in philosophy, philosophy of science, media studies, social theory and political philosophy. Contributors include: Miguel de Beistegui, University of Warwick; Elizabeth Grosz, Rutgers University, New Jersey; Anne Sauvagnargues, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Lyon and Bernard Stiegler, Pompidou Centre, Paris.
This is a most welcome volume on Simondon, which features essays by some of the finest theorists working today. It nicely complements the translation into English of Simondon’s key texts and can be highly recommended to those working in the humanities and social sciences and looking for new models of thought. * Keith Ansell-Pearson, University of Warwick *
