Review # 1 was written on 2007-10-09 00:00:00 Michael Bennigan Good variety of topics (including 3 solid feminist chapters). Recommended for intermediate Bourdieu readers interested in grasping his theory of fields through short concrete examples.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-12 00:00:00 Mervin Kreider I read a little bit of Paul Virilio, some articles and interviews and a few books, and had some big problems with his methodology. I also found that his stance towards biopolitics, while generally pretty well-developed for what it was (despite my own take on it) started to find awfully regressive when it came to sexual emancipation. This book was very helpful in contextualizing the broad sweep of his arguments and shedding some light on what may appear a little fishy at first glance. Although, neither this nor anything else I've been able to find addresses the disturbing level of hostility or dismissal Virilio (as well as others in his rough circle, including Zizek) hold towards transgendered people.
