Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the impact of modern communication and surveillance technologies, the book delves into the concept of a "generalized accident" stemming from our disconnection from time, space, and movement. It critiques the loss of geographical spaces, intimacy, and democracy, while serving as a rallying cry against the manipulation of perception by electronic media and authoritarian power. The author advocates for a new ethics of perception and an ecological approach aimed at protecting both the natural world and urban communities from the destructive effects of technological control.
