Description

The Edinburgh Companion to Gilbert Simondon is the most exhaustive introduction to the author's oeuvre and philosophy. It covers all the different areas of Simondon's work, displaying its internal coherence and innovative potential in a variety of research fields. The complexity of Simondon's philosophical enterprise is rigorously interpreted and made available to researchers that are keen to cross disciplinary boundaries and explore new appropriations of his research. Structured in four distinct sections, the volume hosts a collection of essays penned by scholars who have been working on and through Simondon for several years across different disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, politics, law, media, architecture, economy, and ecology. Topics covered range across individuation, technology, imagination, the transindividual, metastability and more.
