Richard Appignanesi“Not a good book. It attempts to take a complex subject and make it assessable to the layman with cartoons, and in this effort it fails. Moreover, the authors often take biased stances, and while I agree with them for the most part it nonetheless detracts from any scholarly offerings in which they wish to partake.”
Richard Appignanesi, Introducing Postmodernism“Noble failure atones for the impossibility of resisting progress successfully.”
