But what if you're not Religious,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Primer on Postmodernism (Paperback)
I liked his take on our age, but for my taste, it was written from too much of a religious orientation. I found Postmodernism for Beginners more entertaining, with insightful reviews of major postmodern thinkers and tinkerers and tricksters.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A great introduction to postmodernist thought.,
This review is from: A Primer on Postmodernism (Paperback)
Over the past few months I've been devouring books and lectures on modern philosophical thought and this book has by far been the broadest and most accessible for a neophyte such as myself. I first listened to the audio version of this book then bought the printed version for more concentrated study. Don't let the fact that this book was written to enlighten a christian audience on the subject of Postmodernism dissuade you from giving it a chance, only the introduction and last chapter even bring that to the readers attention, the rest of the book is pure presentation of the major thinkers ideas, written lucidly by an extremely knowledgable teacher. I doubt you'll find better value on this subject.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Best in it's class,

This review is from: A Primer on Postmodernism (Paperback)
This is probably the best book I've read to understand postmodernism and it's imact upon the church. Grenz is highly readable and immensely insightful in making plain the complexities and realities of our day.
