Life's Little Deconstruction Book: Self-Help for the Post-Hip

Rating:
Summary: amusing post-something-or-other
Review: I found this book entertaining. After all, the heady world of deconstruction and postmodern thought is in serous need of a little humor. It is also in need of clarity. And for this I would recommend 'Derrida for Beginners,' and also 'Postmodernism for Beginners.'

Summary: True to Form and Content
Review: I never truly understood post-modernism until I read this book. In college, I read some of the post-Modernist thinkers, but somehow through humor and concise sayings, Andrew Boyd has distilled the essence of post-modernist thought. I've given it as a gift to some of my academic friends --and its the instant hit. I've been in a number of settings where people read them aloud and laugh and discuss them.

Summary: criticize and embrace post-modernity
Review: this book has encapsulated my undergraduate education at a small liberal arts college, for a fraction of the price. to truly appreciate the book, however, the college education helps.
