'An engagement with the history of the future immediately aligns [this] book and its project with the wider issues of our time: interdisciplinarity, ecological responsibility, and environmental sustainability. This is a book with a global agenda... rich, stimulating and rewarding' - Lelia Green, Australian Journal of Communication
'Sublime Communication Technologies is a lively read and a useful contribution to theorising media, space and body and bringing together a range of diverse theorists and "-ospheres" examples.' - Mark Balnaves, Media International Australia
'This is a trenchantly argued and important book whose arguments deserve to be widely read and taken very seriously. Giblett convincingly shows his readers that if we unthinkingly take for granted what might be at stake in the existence of modern communications technologies we are likely to overlook some of the most important political, social, and intellectual challenges posed by recent history and by the contemporary world.' - Ian James, University of Cambridge, UK
