0759103836 978-0759103832 April 2004 Crds
Impress your friends and colleagues with your very own collection of Theory Trading Cards! This edition includes a set of 21 cards featuring the most important social and cultural theorists of our time. Like their sports counterpart, our trading cards are designed in an easy-to-read, portable format. Each card includes a photograph, a summary of each theorist's critical ideas and essential information such as important publications and biographical material. Theory Trading Cards provide concise answers to questions such as, "What is the essence of Michel Foucault's oeuvre?" "What are bell hooks' most important works?" and "What is Theodor Adorno's astrological sign?" Theory Trading Cards will make a handy reference guide for students, teachers, and fans of social and cultural theory, and gender, identity, and media studies.

4.0 out of 5 stars Totally Cool Trading Cards, August 3, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Theory Trading Cards (Cards)
For those of us straddling both the academic and popular culture worlds, these cards are perfect. I didn't know all the theorists, though, but that's ok. If a few more sets of these were available then actual trading COULD happen and it would be awesome. "My Deleuze for your Cixous!!"
