"This is a major work by one of the most original and influential thinkers working on the intersection of communication with cultural studies in the world today. Jody Berland is a writer of intense clarity and beautiful style, with an astonishing capacity to move fluidly between aesthetic, social, political, historical and technical frames of thought. "North of Empire" shows us how to think profoundly, again, about space and why it matters."--Meaghan Morris, Lingnan University (Hong Kong) and University of Sydney (Australia)
