Summary:

Examines contemporary ideas and cultural/technological products, and the history of their development from the late nineteenth century. Emphasises the way in which "every thing, and every individual emerges, evolves, and passes away by incorporating and being incorporated into, other emerging, evolving, or disintegrating structures that surround and suffuse it."
