Biology’s Function in Contemporary Capitalism

In this book, we don’t do biology, or fund it, or research it, or practice it; in this book, we are biology.

In anticipation of MYB's upcoming second book with Becoming Press, we have reverted the design of this book back to its original, first edition cover, and the typography inside the book has been updated to our 2025 style. Entering its 3rd edition, this book has been re-edited, with a new foreword which reframes the book in accordance with the author's reflections over the 2 years this book has been out.

While presented as a contiguous work, the book is formed of different essays that have been dissected, recomposed with artificial connective tissue. The result lies somewhere between the rhizomatic continuity of a Body-without-Organs, and the disjointed assemblage of roadkill; either way, the question of where to even begin remains the same.
