Sobre este item
United Kingdom: Thames & Hudson, Publisher, 1992. Bright blue fine cloth boards, slight shelf wear, gilt cover art and stamped spine titles, fine. Pages fine. Dj lt. edge wear. This one is a firecracker. Not the easiest read, or most gripping - but Jean knows what he thinks and he has thought a great deal. Plenty of metaphors for reading the world and copious references. Presents some excellent reflections and observations on how the world is shaping us, being shaped. Opinions from "the compression of time" to "the extent of globalisation and the hegemonic forces of modern capitalism." Neither academic, nor layman's; for those concerned about where we are, have been, and, where we are going. A masterful synopsis of modern life, with self-import, but perhaps justified. - Reviewer excerpt. 191 pages. Couple bookstore marks.. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Book.
