Hegel, Slavoj Zizek gives us a reading of the philosophical giant that changes our way of thinking about our new posthuman era. No ordinary study of Hegel, \u003ci\u003eHegel in a Wired Brain\u003c\/i\u003e investigates what he might have had to say about the idea of the 'wired brain' - what happens when a direct link between our mental processes and a digital machine emerges. Zizek explores the phenomenon of a wired brain \u003ci\u003eeffect\u003c\/i\u003e, and what might happen when we can share our thoughts directly with others. He hones in on the key question of how it shapes our experience and status as 'free' individuals and asks what it means to be human when a machine can read our minds. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith characteristic verve and enjoyment of the unexpected, Zizek connects Hegel to the world we live in now, shows why he is much more fun than anyone gives him credit for, and why the 21st century might just be Hegelian.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Slavoj Zizek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350124419\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350124417\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2021","brand":"Slavoj Zizek","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44047368585471,"sku":"9781350124417","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_236062d2-1318-41bc-9575-ff73c7058f73.jpg?v=1684989806","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hegel-in-a-wired-brain-slavoj-zizek-9781350124417","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
