Description: Blending philosophy and sociology with media geography, Disentangling offers a crucial reflection on how we might unravel our digital dependence by reasserting resilient boundaries between ourselves and the surrounding political, economic, cultural, and technological systems.

Review Quotes: "This collection offers a brilliant series of reflections on our increasingly ambivalent response to the digital tendrils that captivate and capture us. The result is a profound and riveting meditation on the fate of sociality in our increasingly networked world." -- Mark Andrejevic, Monash University

"In today's hyperconnected world, it is imperative to understand the geographies, experiences, and impacts of digital disconnection. Disentangling offers an important intervention for anyone seeking to understand what it means for people and places to switch off." -- Mark Graham, Oxford Internet Institute
