Description
In The Perfect Machine Nelson explores the hidden and bizarre roots of a medium that has assumed extraordinary, institutionalized power over our daily lives.
About the author
Born in Duluth, Minnesota in 1945, Joyce Nelson now lives in Victoria, B.C. She is a cultural critic as well as a poet and is the author of many books of non-fiction.
Editorial Reviews
Nelson's book is particularly valuable in that it crosses our fading national border with the ease of television itself. To her credit, Nelson has the courage to take the feminist view of technology to its logical conclusion.
