Description: "Poetry and 'plain language' collide in Human Resources, revealing the visceral and psychic cost of selling things with depleted words. As letters turn to digits, pilfered rhetorics track an economy in which poets, marketers, philosophers and coders contest meaning at the limits of language." "Navigating the crumbling boundaries between page, screen, reader, engine, writer and database, Human Resources investigates wasting words and words as waste - and the creative potential of salvage"--Back cover.
