Synopsis
Now you can get to the bottom of the Big Bang theory; find out where Freud's ideas were coming from, and where Einstein's may ultimately take us; demystify surrealism and structuralism, dialectic and deconstruction, communism and capitalism. With hundreds of entries, drawn from a wide range of fields - including religion, philosophy, psychology, economics, politics, history, art, literature, and science - "The Dictionary of Important Ideas and Thinkers" enables you to turn immediately to the term in question for a comprehensive description of its history, meaning and context. It includes hundreds of entries, alphabetically arranged, with key words and concepts highlighted and cross-referenced - more than two thousand in all. It features: a special emphasis on multicultural influences and the long - neglected impact of women on the history of ideas; a concise bibliography of further readings and resources; and a comprehensive index giving easy access to all key terms and names.
