Review

Cedric Robinson is an original thinker whose work challenges disciplinary and epistemological boundaries by painstakingly revealing the substance of such limits. But more, this book serves not simply to expose the weaknesses of certain explanatory forms, but more usefully to propose alternative approaches to the problem of understanding both past and present. His prose—sharp, considered, lyrical, funny—compels us to think again about what we think we already know about knowledge, power, social order, and social change.--Ruth Wilson Gilmore, author of Golden Gulag: Prisons, Surplus, Crisis, and Opposition in Globalizing California
Cedric Robinson is an intellectual treasure, a world-historical theorist whose influence is already great and will only increase as time passes.--Howard Winant, University of California, Santa Cruz
