In the most rigorous articulation of his philosophical system to date, Slavoj Žižek provides nothing short of a new definition of dialectical materialism. In forging this new materialism, Žižek critiques and challenges not only the work of Alain Badiou, Robert Brandom, Joan Copjec, Quentin Meillassoux, and Julia Kristeva (to name but a few), but everything from popular science and quantum mechanics to sexual difference and analytic philosophy.

Contemporary life is defined by excess. There must always be more, there is never enough. We need a surplus to what we need to be able to truly enjoy what we have. Slavoj Žižek's guide to surplus (and why it's enjoyable) begins by arguing that what is surplus to our needs is by its very nature unsubstantial and unnecessary. But, perversely, without this surplus, we wouldn't be able to enjoy what is substantial and necessary. Indeed, without the surplus we wouldn't be able to identify what was the perfect amount.

The concept of disparity has long been a topic of obsession and argument for philosophers but Slavoj Žižek would argue that what disparity and negativity could mean, might mean and should mean for us and our lives has never been more hotly debated. Disparities explores contemporary 'negative' philosophies from Catherine Malabou's plasticity, Julia Kristeva's abjection and Robert Pippin's self-consciousness to the God of negative theology, new realisms and post-humanism and draws a radical line under them.

No ordinary study of Hegel, Hegel in a Wired Brain investigates what he might have had to say about the idea of the 'wired brain' – what happens when a direct link between our mental processes and a digital machine emerges. Žižek explores the phenomenon of a wired brain effect, and what might happen when we can share our thoughts directly with others. He hones in on the key question of how it shapes our experience and status as 'free' individuals and asks what it means to be human when a machine can read our minds.

Every decision you have ever made has been contaminated. Not by ignorance, not by carelessness, but by the very biology that makes you alive. The hormones circulating in your blood, the emotional systems firing beneath your awareness, the ancient programs optimized for survival and reproduction on an ancestral savanna that vanished millennia ago — all of these operate continuously, silently shaping every judgment you make. The most educated judge, the most experienced general, the most brilliant analyst — all are subject to the same invisible contamination at the moment of decision.

How close are you to the edge? Closer than you think. Every human mind operates on a landscape of valleys and ridges. The valley is your sanity—the deep, stable equilibrium of a mind that can absorb the shocks of life and return to balance. But the valley is not permanent. It can be eroded by chronic stress, sleeplessness, isolation, and trauma, until the ridge between health and illness is so low that a single bad day can send the entire system over the edge.

By the time you read this sentence, it has already become the past. Your brain is lying to you—and that lie keeps you alive. Every perception you experience, every movement you make, every intuition that guides your decisions is not a response to reality but a prediction about it. You are not seeing the present. You are seeing your brain's best guess about what the present should be.
