Review
""Mats Alversson's book stands in a solid tradition of well written, intelligent but pragmatic interpretations of continental European philosophy.
This sensible, readable account of an elusive and demanding philosophy could be well recommended to anyone seeking a pain-free approach to postmodernism that doesn't compromise the intellectual integrity of its subject matter"" - Nick Joint
