Reviews
Lee Konstantinou, author of Cool Characters: Irony and American Fiction:
Claiming that computational media have brought to bear new, nonhuman forms of cognition, Postprint offers a series of compelling examples and showcases an empirical method that will be widely emulated by literary and media studies scholars interested in exploring the history and future of print culture.
