The Spectacle of Disintegration by Mckenzie Wark

Acclaimed author follows the work of the Situationist International after May 1968.
Wark's readable explanation of the movement's ideas is the best I have read-- Edwin Heathcote, In praise of 'Beach Beneath the Street' * Financial Times *
A playful, smart and occasionally epigrammatic study of the Situationists ... this brilliant account is not only an essential work for our own times; it also comes with a cover that, with the minimum of manual dexterity, folds out intoa collaborative graphic essay. -- John Burnside * Times Literary Supplement *
McKenzie Wark is best known for a series of books of twenty-first century critical theory, including A Hacker Manifesto, Gamer Theory, and Capital is Dead. She has also written works that contribute to an alternate history of Marxism, including Leaving the Twentieth Century and Molecular Red. Her survey books on contemporary theory and problems in collaborative knowledge production are General Intellects and Sensoria. She also writes in an autotheoretical style in books such as Dispositions, Philosophy for Spiders, Raving and Love and Money, Sex and Death. She is a professor of media and cultural studies at a university in New York.
