'If you've ever felt like we're going nowhere fast, and you'd like
to know why - preferably sometime before you die - read this book'
- James Der Derian, Brown University and UMASS/Amherst Examining
how the 'here and now' of space, territory, the body, are being
redefined by new technologies and how this undoes simplistic
versions of the globalization thesis, Paul Virilio demonstrates how
technology has made inertia the defining condition of modernity. An
instantaneous present has replaced space and the sovereignty of
territory; everything happens without the need to go anywhere.
