Han argues that digitalization and prevailing narcissism have eliminated \"transcendence\": there is no longer an \"Other\" before whom to be silent and listen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003eThrough concepts such as \"decreation\" and receptive passivity, the author proposes recovering a contemplative way of life. God, in this text, is not a dogmatic figure, but the name given to that profound and silent attention that we have forgotten to practice. An essential book for understanding what we lose when we gain connectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003eByung-Chul Han\u003c\/b\u003e (Seoul, 1959) is one of the most widely read and translated philosophers and essayists in the world today.
