The Object of the Subject (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780359762507)

The Philosophical Hack uses Slavoj Zizek's book 'Event' as a platform from which to hack into philosophical reality. A hack is someone who uses technology and standard methods adeptly but is not employed to make marketed products. Yet in another sense, a hack is a repeated application of a specific yet broad algorithmic protocol upon a closed problematic space. The role of the hack is at once to disrupt and to consolidate. The hack is a check on the security of closed functional systems, as well as the impetus for its growth. Defining this problematic space through a careful assault on weak points in the philosophical facade, Nathaniel offers us a way into a new view of science . Mr. Nathaniel is writing to a wide intelligent audience in such a way that the philosophical mind will not be ostracized but will indeed be challenged. It is indeed a philosophical hack.
