"Posthuman Dialogues is a roller coaster ride, full of the bumps, excitement, challenges and explorations brought about by injecting the alien potentialities of the posthuman into the discipline of International Relations. What these potentialities are, how they might work and how they may challenge dominant anthropocentric perspectives and with what consequences is, quite rightly, a matter of debate and exploration. Highly recommended." - David Chandler, Professor of International Relations, University of Westminster.
