Paper Machine by Jacques Derrida

This book draws together essays that play in various ways upon questions involving books, archivization, machines for writing, and the mechanicity inherent in language, the media, and intellectuals.
"A brilliant and succinct formulation of Derrida's position on the topics that have most interested him in recent yearsThis volume will make a wonderful book because of its timeliness: much in this book helps one to understand 9/11 and its aftermaths, though it was written before the event. Paper Machine will serve as an admirable introduction to Derrida's work." -J. Hillis Miller,University of California, Irvine
