Neither a manifesto nor a one-sided critique, this new book introduces a number of original essays exploring various aspects of that contemporary cultural phenomenon named postmodernism. These essays are prefaced by an introductory essay which sets out the major lines of a debate which is about nothing less than the current shape and future prospects of our society.

From the Back Cover:
Postmodernism is an eminently contestable concept. As its reference-points emerge in the work of philosophers, social theorists, film-makers, painters, sculptors, photographers, architects, designers, novelists, poets, and even politicians and generals, they create major crises for interpretation. Thus, the various authors within this text do not speak with one voice. Together, however, they provide a fine account of the central issues which are at stake. The substantial introduction by the editors traces the concept of postmodernism back to its roots, and provides a powerful and original assessment of its contemporary political relevance, especially in regard to questions of gender and race.
