Alexander Galloway is professor of media, culture, and communication at New York University. His many books include The Interface Effect and The Exploit: A Theory of Networks (Minnesota, 2007).
"Laruelle: Against the Digital is a compelling read for any form of investigations in today’s conditions of power, aesthetics, and thought. Alexander R. Galloway’s lucid writing takes us on a thrilling journey into the details of Laruelle’s uncompromising thought of the One. It offers us challengingly fresh material for developing a non-representational view of computers, capitalism, art and ethics. Galloway’s profound critique of the discrete is an unmissable intervention into the thought of the digital today." -Luciana Parisi, Goldsmiths University of London "This daring and original treatise outlines an anti-dialectical, analog, generic, utopian, and static ‘last philosophy’ that affirms a new ethic of the one against a logic of capital and of the digital. Galloway positions his stunning synthesis of Laruelle’s thought provocatively alongside yet at odds with Deleuze, Badiou, Heidegger, Levinas, and Henry." -Eleanor Kaufman, UCLA
