About

In an engagingly skeptical, aphoristic voice ("look at the post modern world as a kind of jailbreak from the Grand Hotel"), Anderson provides continuity between sections as diverse as "Symbols at Work and Play" (which includes a relatively lucid passage from Jacques Derrida on "the dubious relationship between a word and its referent" and Stephen Katz's spoof on "How to Speak and Write Postmodern") and "Science Without Scientism," featuring passages from Thomas Kuhn and Paul Feyerabend on the instability of scientific principles.
