Contrary to the supposedly sublime linear logic that underpins our prevalent modes of theoretical and empirical enquiry, in this fascinating book organizational anthropologist, Tom Vine, charts the pervasiveness of paradox across the academy: from arithmetic to zoology.

Tom Vine completed his first two degrees at the University of Warwick before moving to the University of Essex for his doctorate. He is currently Associate Professor at the University of Suffolk. When he's not grappling with Nietzsche, Tom enjoys charity shop crawls, restoring old boats, and cold water swimming in the rivers of East Anglia.
