About The Book

<p>A highly contentious very readable and totally up-to-the-minute investigation of women’s natural relationship with modern technology an association which Plant argues will trigger a new sexual revolution.</p> <p>Zeros and Ones is an intelligent provocative and accessible investigation of the intersection between women feminism machines and in particular information technology. Arguing that the computer is rewriting the old conceptions of man and his world it suggests that the telecoms revolution is also a sexual revolution which undermines the fundamental assumptions crucial to patriarchal culture. Historical contemporary and future developments in telecommunications and in IT are interwoven with the past present and future of feminism women and sexual difference and a wealth of connections parallels and affinities between machines and women are uncovered as a result. Challenging the belief that man was ever in control of either his own agency the planet or his machines this book argues it is seriously undermined by the new scientific paradigms emergent from theories of chaos complexity and connectionism all of which suggest that the old distinctions between man woman nature and technology need to be radically reassessed.</p>
