Recensioner i media

"The word 'postmodern' resists precise definition, and a definitive survey of postmodernism would be a contradiction in terms. But this book does the next best thing, giving lucid and comprehensive summaries of the work of a broad range of postmodern artists and thinkers."Steven Shaviro, University of Washington
