Publisher Synopsis
"'This is a wonderful and important book. The author links the history of art to the important role played by various forms of thinking in the Jewish tradition and connects that to the emerging culture of digital expression. Brilliant insights and new ways of seeing make this a must read for anyone interested in the intellectual history of images in the 21st Century.' - Ron Burnett, President of Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in Vancouver, Canada."
