{"product_id":"grey-ecology-paul-virilio-9780981946276","title":"Grey Ecology","description":"Here as Virilio states, \"all one can do is guess.\" But Virilio's position is not one of pure guessery. His extrapolationist position against his delirium state, has the architecture of a 23rd century scientist: three parts - fractal geometry, two parts - theory of general relativity, one part - Philip K. Dick. One must step back and stare down the medusa of progress with a mirror. This is Virilio's call for a grey ecology. PAUL VIRILIO is a renowned urbanist, political theorist and critic of the art of technology.Born in Paris in 1932, Virilio is best known for his 'war model' of the growth of the modern city and the evolution of human society. He is also the inventor of the term 'dromology' or the logic of speed. Identified with the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty, the futurism of Marinetti and technoscientific writings of Einstein, Virilio's intellectual outlook can usefully be compared to contemporary architects, philosophers and cultural critics such as Bernard Tschumi, Gilles Deleuze and Jean Baudrillard. Virilio is the author, among other books of Speed and Politics, The Information Bomb, Open Sky, and most recently, The Original Accident.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Virilio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0981946275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780981946276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atropos Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.63d","brand":"Paul Virilio","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48443767292159,"sku":"9780981946276","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_17070a75-b94f-41f7-b37e-4c91a1137300.jpg?v=1777207708","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/grey-ecology-paul-virilio-9780981946276","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
