内容説明
A blend of semi-fiction and theory, this text retraces its author's theoretical descent into a fascinating, if horrific, social geography of electronic information, heterosexist desire, white male militarism and a new world order of cybernetic totems and telematic social control. The book contributes to the debate on the postmodern condition. The author has also written "Predicting Dangerousness" and "Venus In Video".
