Rezensionen

`The new introduction is a fine piece of work ... the book is even more timely today than it was fifteen years ago when the first edition was published' - Christopher Lasch, author of The Culture of Narcissism

`Escape Attempts pays homage to the diverse, often ingenious ways in which people everywhere set about constructing fragile architecture round themselves capable of withstanding the dreary pressures not just of `paramount reality' but of sociological theory itself' - Dick Hebdidge, author of Hiding In The Light
