Additional notes:
Francois Deschamps: "By taking off on the structure of old textbook 'primers' (complete with chapter units and study questions), this book discusses ideas of contemporary morality in relationship to science."

Nexus Press: Particle Theory's satirical 'image topology' combines appropriated photographs and a textbook format to powerfully portray the absurdities of instrumental rationality. In the process the book performs a comic demolition exercise on the foundations of our society.
