a "BEST" discovery (pgs. 83-101)...,
By hopeful humanitus (gainesville, florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Postmodern Fables (Paperback)
1...for this uneducated old fool who has been pursuing a strange intuitiive feeling that postmodern philosophy had hidden somewhere within it a core that would clarify my self educated understanding of existence but had almost given up on all the danmd word players, loyatard's 18 pages offering his overall view of existence and cosmic evolution has renewed my hopes of discovering even more treasures amongst the trash of this world.2...i am also profiting from (learning and enjoying) the other offerings.3...if there are other treasures up to this level available, this blind old hawg hopes to find them. 4...for "late-in-life" autodidact lovers of heuristic learning such as i aspire to be i say "don't give in to supposed expert word game players'

Excellent...,
By Yuri Kuzyk - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Postmodern Fables (Hardcover)
No wonder Lyotard (and many of the other European philosophers) have truly irritated most of the North American preachers of the TRUTH. To begin with, his style is not the old Aristotelian-based method argument but more in line with the brother's Grimm. In particular, his reply to Rorty just about made me cough up my cup of tea into the book it was that funny.The argument of objectivity is getting very tired and, after all the work done by Godel, Chaitin, Perlovsky, Einstein and Prigogine, really seems to have been undermined by it's supposed saviour, science. Time for new ideas and Lyotard's style should be one of the first. After years and piles of books by de Bono one wonders why ideas are still being presented in the dry vacuum of middle-excluded logic. Definitely worth reading and pondering. 5 of 17 people found the following review helpful
