About this product

Product Information

"A fascinating short book" on the perils of 21st-century capitalism and its near-complete takeover of our everyday lives ( New York Times Magazine ) 24/7: Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep explores some of the ruinous consequences of the expanding non-stop processes of twenty-first-century capitalism. The marketplace now operates through every hour of the clock, pushing us into constant activity and eroding forms of community and political expression, damaging the fabric of everyday life. Jonathan Crary examines how this interminable non-time blurs any separation between an intensified, ubiquitous consumerism and emerging strategies of control and surveillance. He describes the ongoing management of individual attentiveness and the impairment of perception within the compulsory routines of contemporary technological culture. At the same time, he shows that human sleep, as a restorative withdrawal that is intrinsically incompatible with 24/7 capitalism, points to other more formidable and collective refusals of world-destroying patterns of growth and accumulation.

Reviews
"A dark, brilliant book" - Michael Hardt, Artforum "A humane & bracingly splenetic counterblast." - Steven Poole,  New Statesman " 24/7  is the capstone of Crary's archeology of the spectacle and arguably the most significant of the lot. It's informed by the erudition of one of the most thorough and original researchers on the planet. The vast bodies of knowledge Crary seamlessly weaves together in  24/7  is reminiscent of the work of Michel Foucault...[and] marked by a moral passion that fuels Crary's polemic and underscores what's at stake, specifically the future of the human being in both the physical and emotional sense. Plus, it's eminently readable."-  PopMatters "The 24/7 phantasmagoria of digital exchange impresses the commodity deep into the body's tissues, leaving only sleep as a partial respite. Jonathan Crary updates Marcuse's  One Dimensional Man  with a vigilant critique of the totality of the seemingly eternal present of this pseudo-world." --McKenzie Wark, author of  The Spectacle of Disintegration "Crary's polemic against the demands of 24/7 capitalism brilliantly illuminates the devastating effects of our changed temporality. Enjoined to constant productivity, we consume ourselves, our world, and our capacity collectively to imagine a common future. This is a crucial commentary on the format and tempo of contemporary life."--Jodi Dean, author of  The Communist Horizon From the Hardcover edition., "The 24/7 phantasmagoria of digital exchange impresses the commodity deep into the body's tissues, leaving only sleep as a partial respite.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
