Reviews
"Bill Martin's Matrix and line is the most comprehensive and exciting of a number of recent North American attempts to assess the politics of deconstruction and the deconstruction of modernist politics. It shows how the question of the other, the marginal and the excluded are decisive for an emerging form of political thought and practice. A confrontation between Jacques Derrida's and Jurgen Habermas's philosophies of language sets the stage for a number of scenarios that lucidly articulate the possibility of a radical diversity of voices and a community without a constricting sense of unity." -- Gary Shapiro, University of Richmond "This book is an elegantly written, patiently argued, and intelligently conceived contribution to the philosophies of the new social movements--a study which makes important interventions into the fields of continental philosophy, postmodernism, social theory, feminism, literary criticism, and analytic philosophy." -- Diana Fuss, Princeton University "Bill Martin has written a book--perhaps the first since Lyotard's own Postmodern Condition-- to show that postmodernism is something more than yet another license for creatively misreading texts. Martin imparts to philosophizing a new sense of political urgency, while at the same time, his commentary on the geopolitical scene evinces a philosophical perspicacity that compares favorably with the 'new communitarianism' of Roberto Unger or Mouffe and Laclau." -- Steve Fuller, Executive Editor, Social Epistemology

    The encyclopedia of art arrived in excellent condition, I want to thank you for how you packed the set of books which made it easier to handle. The encyclopedia is exactly as described and I believe was very fairly priced. The books arrived over a four day period but in the end I think it was the best way to ship them. I want to thank you, it is a great encyclopedia and I can only wonder why librarians would ever remove these books from their collections. Thank you so much, Howard

    This was an excellent transaction, from beginning to end, and I am thoroughly pleased with my purchase. The seller described the item accurately and posted clear photographs and I was able to easily determine its condition and make a purchase based on all of the available information. Once I paid for my purchase the seller quickly packaged and shipped the item by mail and it arrived in good condition, exactly as it was advertised. I look forward to purchasing from this seller in the future.
