Unique access to archival material of a major thinker, including
presentations, early drafts, and a thorough introduction to the
history of the philosophical notion of the individualÂ
 The second volume of Individuation in Light of Notions of
Form and Information presents archival documents detailing both the
preliminary research conducted by Gilbert Simondon as well as
sketches of early drafts and presentations of his work throughout
the intellectual era of his eventual magnum opus. Volume II
provides an erudite and important overview of a unique history of
both the role the individual has played throughout history in
philosophy, religion, and society as well as insight into the
contemporary machinations and exciting milieu in which Simondon
dared to tread as an interdisciplinary thinker in philosophy and
psychology, as well as the new burgeoning fields of computer
science and cybernetics. This companion volume provides
insight into Simondon’s primary thesis, for which he is renowned
by scholars in a wide range of academic disciplines. Readers across
the humanities and the sciences, information theory, philosophy of
technology, and many other fields now have a vital resource for
intellectual exploration into the human’s ongoing relationship
with the technological universe.
