From the Bauhaus to Buckminster Fuller, from Elvis to ecology, the writings of John McHale (1922–1978) engage a diverse set of concerns. The Expendable Reader highlights McHale's theorization of technology and communication and their impact on traditional ideas of culture. Assembled from a broad range of sources, this book enables a sharper grasp on McHale's thinking and on our own cultural situation.
