The necessity to think through issues related to the intersection of 21st century technology, psychology, subjectification, and human experience is an urgent concern for all fields of human inquiry, but perhaps particularly urgent for psychology as it moves from 19th and 20th century theoretical formulations to theory responsive to the shifting terrain of consciousness and society in the 21st century, This volume is situated in such a way as to offer one opening set of possible formulations. Bringing forward the work of Simondon, Guattari, Deleuze and Deligny as the central interlocutors for this volume opens a field of inquiry that is very original and timely. The three core concepts of transindividualism,the society of control, and networks as a mode of being make sense as way to conceptualize life affirmative networks of care under 21st century capitalism -Hans Skott-Myhre, Professor of Human Services, Kennesaw State University
