A long-awaited translation on the philosophical relation between
technology, the individual, and milieu of the living From
Democritus's atomism to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, from
Aristotle's reflections on the individual to Husserl's call for a
focused return to things, from the philosophical advent of the
Cartesian ego and the Leibnizian monad to Heidegger's notion of
Dasein, the question concerning the constitution of the individual
has continued to loom large over the preoccupations of philosophers
and scholars of scientific disciplines for thousands of years.
Through conceptions in modern scientific areas of research such as
thermodynamics, the fabrication of technical objects, gestalt
theory, cybernetics, and the dynamic formation at work in the
creation of crystals, Gilbert Simondon's unique multifaceted
philosophical and scholarly research will eventually lead to an
astounding reevaluation and questioning of the historical methods
for posing the very question and notion of the individual. More
than fifty years after its original publication in French, this
groundbreaking work of philosophical theory is now available in its
first complete English language translation.
