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.

Shipping was fast! However, before buying I tried to find out more about their listing - it said it included a "12" vinyl album with CD". Their reply simply repeated what the listing said - I wanted to know more about the CD that was included. Turns out it was a packaged deal - the CD was included inside the album jacket, no insert or track listing with the CD, which I would have liked to have had to match in storing like the rest of my CDs. It's a great value, but a little disappointing.
Order arrived today in undamaged, new condition, exactly as advertised. Competitively priced. Though the processing/shipping time left something to be desired, and the seller failed to reply to my email inquiry as to why it did not ship in a timely manner, otherwise it was a smooth transaction. I have purchased from this seller many times and have always been very happy with their prices and the quality of their product. I'll continue to give them my business and recommend them to others.
My order arrived today, very well packaged and delivered to my front door. I thank you for the quick shipping response, great customer service, open line of communication, for having what I was looking for, for your business and for doing business with me. I saved you as a seller for possible future purchases. Quality is perfect, condition is brand new, a good value for your money and appearance is as described. Have yourself a very blessed day and upcoming week.
