"""S�ren Riis dares to do something so original--provide fresh interpretations of Martin Heidegger and Bruno Latour by placing them in an intellectually daring and rigorous conversation--that his groundbreaking theoretical fieldwork goes far beyond merely creating new and vibrant connections between philosophical and STS scholarship. The surprising twists and turns result in a profound meditation on modernity, technology, and what it means to be human that far exceeds the sum of its parts. Not only does Riis's creative comparison shed new light on the past and open up fresh ways to think about the future, but it subtly yet undeniably demonstrates something crucial. Riis is a leading thinker in his own right."" --Evan Selinger, professor of philosophy, Rochester Institute of Technology"
