Opis

A new, radical Zizekian reading of Hegel and how his work is still directly relevant to the posthuman era

Recenzje

Hegel in a Wired Brain, mixes perspicacity and paradox in brain-teasing ways that have become his signature style but there is novelty too in this punchy addition to his oeuvre. PopMatters
