A radical history of indeterminate materialism from prehistory to the present The crystallisation of a decade of research, Matter and Motion traces a line of ancient and modern thinkers who shared a radically different understanding of matter and motion inside and against the Euro-Western tradition. Many have understood matter and motion as relative and as reducible to form and stasis. But, here for the first time, Thomas Nail traces the histo...

A guidebook to living in a world that's destined to die, through a new reading of Lucretius' De Rerum Natura

Offers a new understanding of history through an innovative reading of Lucretius' De Rerum Natura.

Describes a new, systematic process philosophy of science and technology focused on the agency and mobility of objects.

Nail's inter-disciplinary command skilfully navigates debates about the nature of reality across the humanities, mathematics and the sciences. We learn that objects are indeterminate, and objectivity, observation and even anthropocentrism are not what they seem. By destabilising foundations Nail's kinesis and process history provokes fascinating quandaries and speculative possibilities.' Vicki Kirby, University of New South Wales 'We live in a...

An account of the concept of revolution in the work of Deleuze and Guattari outlining the theoretical and practical origins of the return to political revolution and providing the first full-length account of Deleuze and Guattari's relationship to a concrete revolutionary struggle.

We need a new philosophy of the earth. Geological time used to refer to slow and gradual processes, but today we are watching land sink into the sea and forests transform into deserts. We can even see the creation of new geological strata made of plastic, chicken bones, and other waste that could remain in the fossil record for millennia or longer. Crafting a philosophy of geology that rewrites natural and human history from the broader perspe...

In a world of rising income inequality, right-wing nationalisms, and global climate change, people are again looking to Karl Marx for answers. This book offers readers a new perspective on several major ideas in Marx's work. It argues that Marx, contrary to convention, did not think history was deterministic or that reality could be reduced to classical materialism. Marx was not an anthropocentric humanist nor did he have a labor theory of val...

Human suffering, the fear of death, war, poverty, ecological destruction and social inequality: Thomas Nail shows that Lucretius proposed an ethics of motion as simple and stunning solution to these ethical problems in his first-century BC didactic poem De Rerum Natura.

Theory of the Image offers a new and systematic philosophy of art and aesthetics from the perspective of movement.

Theory of the Image offers a new and systematic philosophy of art and aesthetics from the perspective of movement.

More than at any other time in human history, we live in an age defined by movement and mobility, and yet, we lack a single contemporary ontology which takes this seriously as a starting point for philosophy. Being and Motion sets out to remedy this lacuna in contemporary thought by providing a historical ontology of our present: an ontology of movement.
