Reviews
The most dangerous philosopher in the West. -- Adam Kirsch * The New Republic *
Addictively eclectic . He contrives to leave the reader, as usual, both exhilarated and disoriented, standing in the middle of a scorched plain strewn with the rubble of smashed idols. -- Steven Poole * Guardian *
A wealth of political and philosophical insight. -- Terry Eagleton * TLS *
Exhilarating, inspiring, thought-provoking. -- David Schneider * Prospect *
