The main problem I had reading the book were the long chapters, where halfway you forget what the chapter was supposed to argue in the first place. Nelson, L. H., & Nelson, J. (Eds.). (1997).

Cambridge, MA: Harvard U. Press. I don’t think people like Barad are as antagonistic towards Marxists as some of them seem to believe, though I understand why they are critical of new materialism generally. Most of the time Barad mentions Marxism it is rendered awkwardly as (post-)Marxism. Petrini, C. (2007). Slow food nation: Why our food should be good, clean, and fair. Rizzoli Ex Libris

Spatialization as a never-ending, power-laced process engaged by a motley array of beings can be fetishized as a series of maps whose grids nontropi­cally locate naturally bounded bodies (land, people, resources-and
inside "absolute" dimensions such as space and time. The maps are fetishes in so far as they enable a specific kind of mistake that turns process into nontropic, real, literal things inside containers." (1997, 136) Quantum Physics is a strangely intimidating topic, even though it just makes a whole lot of sense once you dig into it. In this publication, Karen Barad presents a worldview that has far-reaching implications for the way we humans should interact and treat our environment.

Madison: The University of Wisconsin Press. I first read some chapters from this book in a Marxist reading group maybe a year ago, and most people in the group were very critical of this text. I very recently read a critique of Barad and new materialism more broadly in the same reading group. We read a text by Stuart Newman, a cell biologist and anatomy professor at New York Medical College, who wrote a critique of new materialism in the journal Marxism and Sciences. His main critique is summarized fairly well in the last two paragraphs of the paper: Barad, K. (2017a).

Finally, agential realism emphasizes that constructed knowledges have real material consequences, which introduces the topics of accountability, responsibility, and ethics of knowing. Our discussion

This book challenges the entire epistemological framework with which we think. It explains the history and workings of quantum mechanics and uses it to build this framework.
