Taste

Self-Improvement

A Book of Small Bites

Technologies of the Soul in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

Jehanne Dubrow

Mark Coeckelbergh

Taste is a lyric meditation on one of our five senses. Structured as a series of “small bites,” the book considers the ways that we ingest the world. Through flavorful explorations of the sweet, the sour, the salty, the bitter, and umami, Jehanne Dubrow reflects on the nature of taste. $19.95 / £14.99 paper 978-0-231-20175-9 $80.00 / £62.00 cloth 978-0-231-20174-2 2022 152 pages

This book shows how self-improvement culture became so toxic—and why we need both a new concept of the self and a mission of social change in order to escape it. Mark Coeckelbergh delves into the history of the ideas that shaped this culture, critically analyzes the role of technology, and explores surprising paths out of the selfimprovement trap. $19.95 / £14.99 paper 978-0-231-20655-6

Touch

Inwardness

Recovering Our Most Vital Sense

An Outsider's Guide Jonardon Ganeri

Richard Kearney

Richard Kearney offers a timely call for the cultivation of the basic human need to touch and be touched. Making the case for the complementarity of touch and technology, this book is a passionate plea to recover a tangible sense of community and the joys of life with others.

Jonardon Ganeri explores philosophical reflections from many of the world’s intellectual cultures, ancient and modern, on how each of us creates an inner world. This book is a thoughtprovoking consideration of the value—or peril— of turning one’s gaze inward for all readers who have sought to map the geography of the mind.
