'Digital Schizophrenia & Other Essays' traces the impact of digital technologies from the advent of cybernetics to today’s data-driven, screen-saturated society. While transhumanist discourses celebrate “intelligent machines” and virtual reality, Anne Alombert highlights the mounting evidence of digital harm – from social media’s dangers to attention-draining devices – posing critical threats to thinking itself. Rejecting the transhumanist conflation of mind and machine, Alombert calls for new approaches beyond simplistic human/machine binaries. Deftly translated by Daniel Ross, this first English monograph by one of France’s most incisive philosophers offers a vital critique of digital modernity and its concealed consequences.
