Slavoj Žižek gives us a reading of a philosophical giant that changes our way of thinking about our new posthuman era.

No ordinary study of Hegel, Hegel in a Wired Brain investigates what he might have had to say about the idea of the 'wired brain' – what happens when a direct link between our mental processes and a digital machine emerges. Žižek explores the phenomenon of a wired brain effect, and what might happen when we can share our thoughts directly with others. He hones in on the key question of how it shapes our experience and status as 'free' individuals and asks what it means to be human when a machine can read our minds.

With characteristic verve and enjoyment of the unexpected, Žižek connects Hegel to the world we live in now, shows why he is much more fun than anyone gives him credit for, and why the 21st century might just be Hegelian.©2020 Slavoj Žižek (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Critic Reviews

Hegel in a Wired Brain, mixes perspicacity and paradox in brain-teasing ways that have become his signature style but there is novelty too in this punchy addition to his oeuvre.
With characteristic verve and enjoyment of the unexpected, the author connects Hegel with the world we live in now, shows why he's so much funnier than what has been believed until now, and why the 21st century can be precisely Hegelian.
