Editorial : "Reading such a perceptive and deep book, the author who is the subject of the commentary feels like a sailboat architect realising that the hull he has painfully designed has suddenly turned into a real boat through the skills of the skipper at the helm. What until then has been no more than a mere proposition has become an exciting adventure to understand the specificity of legal connectors. Even though the design of the boat plays a role, it's the skipper that gets the cup A perfect fulfilment of the AIME project." Bruno Latour, Sciences-Po
"From time to time, although much too rarely, comes a book that shatters the very foundations of what we believed. Kyle McGee's 'The Normativity of Networks' is one of those books. Not only does it provide the most extensive and accurate description of Bruno Latour's profound renewal of Western metaphysics available to the contemporary reader, but it does so with the help of the most unexpected of instruments: law.

The first extended study of Bruno Latour’s legal theory, this book presents a critical reconstruction of the whole of Latour’s oeuvre to date, from Laboratory Life to An Inquiry into the Modes of Existence.

I'm definitely looking forward to reading the third book in the trilogy! I seriously recommend the book if you are into fantasy fiction, and suggest that you start out with the first book!.

In the years afterwards I have continued to recommend it, and I've purchased and given away several copies to parents of dying children.
