Kritik
"Why should anyone other than philosophers, sociologists, anthropologists, and psychologists read this book? It is because post-factualism and post-truth as operative modes of thought have emerged from the philosophy journals and gone into the wild--like a virus escaping from a laboratory. ... The objective is cash flow, period. If this is the only philosophy book you read this decade, it will be worth it." (Anthony J. Duben, Computing Reviews, March 11, 2024)

"The book is not a heavy read, and Zoglauer's writing style is easy to follow, even across the potentially very deep topics it presents. Its main readership is not necessarily computing practitioners or academics. ... for people trying to better understand epistemology through its expressions in the modern world, it will be a very worthy read." (Gunnar Wolf, Computing Reviews, March 6, 2024)mehr
