| 520 | |a The body has become central to practices of self-tracking. By focusing on the relations between quantification, the body, and labor, this volume sheds light on the ways in which discourses on data collection, office work, and production are instrumental in redefining concepts of labor, including notions of immaterial and free labor in an increasingly virtual work environment.

By doing so, they also inquire how practices of self-tracking, self-monitoring, and self-optimization have evolved historically. | ||
