Rezensionen

"The Attention Complex certainly got my attention: it is a lively read rife with smart insights about the cultural logic of attention, as well as thoroughly convincing historicization of the 'invention' of ADHD." - Jasbir Puar, Associate Professor, Women's and Gender Studies, Rutgers University, USA, and author of Terrorist Assemblages: Homonationalism in Queer Times
