So far, long, drafty, and out-of-focus text where I am missing animals and plants. Why is the first chapter about an AI-driven car? So far I see nothing about the post-human perspective that is being promised in the quotes behind the cover. Boring to read so far!

Interesting but overly descriptive and out of the point in several parts, too long introduction.

Ok, I am all up for interdisciplinary but against shallow understandings of other discipline. What is wrong with authors that cannot work in group? I mean what a grotesque understanding of gender which is presented here, where the author has clearly a poor understanding of the field, but also completely misses conceptualizing, referencing, and a bunch of strange conclusions that are so speculative!

Oh boy! The number of generalizations here drawn from very specific observations which are not contextualized is very worrying. The topic is good but why, why on earth, the need to make assumptions based on bias on disciplines he doesn't understand well? Why not working with a psychologists, a gender researcher, a doctor...why????

I want to keep reading this book at the same time that I feel like I need to stop reading it - it´s very depressing.

Inconsistent and ironically commiting the same errors tje author so arrogantly criticizes on certain studies. Not sure I will get to the end of this one.

Hemsk översättning!!! Jag läser det på svenska eftersom jag köpte boken billigt. Jag kommer att köpa den på Engelska för att det går inte att läsa i det här översättning.
