About this product

Product Information

In this major new work the leading philosopher Slavoj Zizek argues that philosophical materialism has failed to meet the key scientific, theoretical and political challenges of the modern world, from relativity theory and quantum physics to Freudian psychoanalysis and the failure of twentieth-century Communism. To bring materialism up to date, Zizek proposes a new foundation for dialectical materialism...He argues that dialectical materialism is the only true philosophical inheritor of what Hegel designates as the speculative approach of thought-all other forms of materialism fail. In Absolute Recoil, Zizek offers a startling reformulation of the ground and possibilities of contemporary philosophy.

Praise for Slavoj Zizek: "The excitable fluency, ursine congeniality and gleeful readiness to provoke and offend all feed the sense of authentic sponanaeity and energy that has made Zizek somethig like European philosophy's punk icon, packing out auditoriums around the world." --Josh Cohen, New Statesman ""Few thinkers illustrate the contradictions of contemporary capitalism better than Slavoj Zizek ... one of the world's best-known public intellectuals." --John Gray, New York Review of Books "A gifted speaker--tumultuous, emphatic, direct--he writes as he speaks." --Jonathan Re, Guardian "Like Socrates on steroids ... breathtakingly perceptive." --Terry Eagleton, Praise for Less Than Nothing : "Few thinkers illustrate the contradictions of contemporary capitalism better than Slavoj _i_ek ... one of the world's bestknown public intellectuals." --John Gray, New York Review of Books "A gifted speaker - tumultuous, emphatic, direct - and he writes as he speaks." --Jonathan Rée, Guardian "A serious attempt to reanimate or reactualize Hegel." --Robert Pippin, author of Hegel's Idealism, Praise for Less Than Nothing : "Few thinkers illustrate the contradictions of contemporary capitalism better than Slavoj Žižek ... one of the world's bestknown public intellectuals." --John Gray, New York Review of Books "A gifted speaker - tumultuous, emphatic, direct - and he writes as he speaks." --Jonathan Rée, Guardian "A serious attempt to reanimate or reactualize Hegel." --Robert Pippin, author of Hegel's Idealism, Praise for Slavoj Zizek: "The excitable fluency, ursine congeniality and gleeful readiness to provoke and offend all feed the sense of authentic sponanaeity and energy that has made Zizek somethig like European philosophy's punk icon, packing out auditoriums around the world." --Josh Cohen, New Statesman ""Few thinkers illustrate the contradictions of contemporary capitalism better than Slavoj Zizek ... one of the world's best-known public intellectuals." --John Gray, New York Review of Books "A gifted speaker--tumultuous, emphatic, direct--he writes as he speaks." --Jonathan Rée, Guardian "Like Socrates on steroids ... breathtakingly perceptive." --Terry Eagleton

Exactly as described except the first 50 pages had been torn out. Good price if it had been a complete book. Prompt shipping. Seller promptly and without hesitation or having to return the book, refunded me in full. I will (and have) used again.
