4.0 out of 5 stars
Dipping into modern thought in an easily digestible way.,
By bart beswick (Brisbane, Qld, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought Pb (Paperback)
The editors have put together a book of broad scope and readability that succeeds on many levels. As a dictionary it is a valuable reference work to discover what a concept means in a well summarised form. It is also a great check on your current interpretation of a concept to see if it is compatible with the interpretation of the editors, and is also a great 'dipping' book, for as you flip through the pages you will come to a concept or thought that will be new to you, or could use some revision. It is once more great for finding inter-related topics or further fields of research from a main idea.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought Pb (Paperback)
The twentieth century wasn't monotonous as yuou know. The world of humankind experienced two disastrous wars and after them we have been experiencing continuously a lot of foolish things as you know. Why can't we stop them? This precious dictionary doesn't answer the question directly why we are so foolish, but it gives us clues to think about the question why we are so foolish still now in the 21th century.
