'Nail's inter-disciplinary command skilfully navigates debates about the nature of reality across the humanities, mathematics and the sciences. We learn that objects are indeterminate, and objectivity, observation and even anthropocentrism are not what they seem. By destabilising foundations Nail's kinesis and process history provokes fascinating quandaries and speculative possibilities.' Vicki Kirby, University of New South Wales 'We live in an age of objects' Thomas Nail approaches the theory of objects historically in order to tell a completely new story in which objects themselves are the true agents of scientific knowledge. They are processes, not things. This is the first history of science and technology, from prehistory to the present, illuminating the agency, knowledge and mobility of objects. Thomas Nail is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Denver. He is the author of ten books, including Lucretius I, II, and III, The Figure of the Migrant, and Being and Motion.
