... a fascinating read. The book's originality lies in providing a welcome comparison of the analytical strategies of four theorists whose work is not usually brought together - Foucault, Koselleck, Laclau and Luhmann. It will appeal to both academics and their students. Norman Fairclough, Department of Linguistics and M.E.L., Lancaster University
