In its look at tribalism and systemic cruelty as rooted in shame, dread, and insecurity, the book seeks a better understanding of how power needs, spurred by communities of hatred, weaponize the brain's tendencies to think in animated figures, caricatures, erasures, or, as in the book's mediation on vellum, texts written across the bodies of others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As a lens into contemporary life, the title sequence interrogates the vision of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, whose sense of our increasingly interwoven cultural conversation figures now as a premonition of the internet. If his hope for the noosphere as a fulfillment of divine promise feels problematic, it nonetheless sees our globe as an organism whose long-term survival depends on the capacity of each to forge friendship across difference, to take the health and integration of the individual as emblematic of the whole.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBruce Bond \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of thirty-five books including, \u003ci\u003ePatmos\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBehemoth\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLiberation of Dissonance, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eInvention of the Wilderness, \u003c\/i\u003eplus two books of criticism: \u003ci\u003eImmanent Distance\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003ePlurality and the Poetics of Self\u003c\/i\u003e.
