From Modernism to Postmodernism Reviews

The most practical, coherent, and accessible way to teach postmodernism I have ever seen. William Schroeder, University of Illinois at Urbana--Champaign This is the best collection of texts concerning the most recent developments in what we commonly call 'Continental philosophy'. It allows anyone to traverse the diversity of texts that comprise the modernism--postmodernism debate. Cahoone has also written fine and very helpful introductions to each section. I do not see how anyone teaching a class in this area could use any other book than From Modernism to Postmodernism. Leonard Lawlor, University of Memphis
