And if this were like most books on the subject, it probably wouldn't tell you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBesides what a few grumpy critics claim, Postmodernism is not a bunch of meaningless intellectual mind games. On the contrary, it is a reaction to the most profound spiritual and philosophical crisis of our time - the failure of the Enlightenment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJim Powell takes the position that Postmodernism is a series of \"maps\" that help people find their way through a changing world. Postmodernism For Beginners features the thoughts of Foucault on power and knowledge, Jameson on mapping the postmodern, Baudrillard on the media, Harvey on time-space compression, Derrida on deconstruction and Deleuze and Guattari on rhizomes. The book also discusses postmodern artifacts such as Madonna, cyberpunk, Buddhist ecology, and teledildonics.","brand":"Smartfox Books","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":41516051464325,"sku":"PR13303","price":46.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/0213\/3637\/files\/image_ST8ALVWYQXCJ.jpg?v=1770638505","url":"https:\/\/smartfoxbooks.com.au\/products\/postmodernism-for-beginners","provider":"Smartfox Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
