Terminal Illusion: Logos of Man's Doublet

The book would make a perfect company with the new I of computer culture, especially for those who expect something special. In a uniquely historical setting, we are about to experience the rise of a fundamental human force. We vacillate between moments, whether things around us are transfigured and seem to be there for the first time or things tend to lose all their weight and all meaning becomes obscured, and we ask about the real self. The author argues passionately that the real self, its inevitability in fact lies in the practice of its own negation. The book proposes the logos needed for a discourse as what makes us the speaker for the fist time. The key is the self-discovery of a dialectical doublet: the thinking self and negation. Where the logos makes use of idle thought, the surplus stored in the sexual energies of the species, which would be otherwise wasted, it simply becomes a piece of existence moving toward the ultimate unity of Nature and civilization by holding on to its negation. This may serve as an antithesis needed to advance the psychology of the so-called intellectuals who are locked to the suggestions of the status quo.
