Praise for author Slavoj Zizek "The Elvis of cultural theory."--The Chronicle of Higher Education "The most formidably brilliant exponent of psychoanalysis, indeed of cultural theory in general, to have emerged in Europe for some decades."--Terry Eagleton, The London Review of Books "A one-person culture mulcher . . . a fast-forward philosopher of culture for the post-war period."--The Village Voice "[Zizek] stares out, disheveled, from the page and dares the reader to disagree. . . . As always, he combines the fruitfully combative, the densely intelligent, and the merely glib, sometimes in the same paragraph."--Steven Poole, The Guardian (UK)
