Michel Serres captures the urgencies of our time; from the digital
revolution to the ecological crisis to the future of the
university, the crises that code the world today are addressed in
an accessible, affirmative and remarkably original analysis in his
thought. This volume is the first to engage with the philosophy of
Michel Serres, not by writing 'about' it, but by writing 'with' it.
This is done by expanding upon the urgent themes that Serres works
on; by furthering his materialism, his emphasis on communication
and information, his focus on the senses, and the role of
mathematics in thought. His famous concepts, such as the parasite,
'amis de viellesse', and the algorithm are applied in 21st century
situations. With contributions from an international and
interdisciplinary team of authors, these writings tackle the crises
of today and affirm the contemporary relevance of Serres'
philosophy.
