But as Graham Harman, one of the theory's leading exponents, shows, Object-Oriented Ontology rejects the idea of human specialness: the world, he states, is clearly not the world as manifest to humans. At the heart of this philosophy is the idea that objects - whether real, fictional, natural, artificial, human or non-human - are mutually autonomous. In this brilliant new introduction, Graham Harman lays out the history, ideas and impact of Object-Oriented Ontology, taking in everything from art and literature, politics and natural science along the way.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48171419762846,"sku":"UBD-9780241269152","price":26.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780241269152.jpg?v=1787220784","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780241269152","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
