Summary:

"This book offers an historical and critical guide to the concepts of the post-modern and the post-industrial. It brings admirable clarity and thoroughness to a discussion of the many different uses made of the term post-modern across a number of different disciplines (literature, architecture, art history, philosophy, anthropology and geography, to name but a few). It also analyses the concept of the post-industrial society to which the concept of the post-modern has often been related. Dr Rose discusses the work of many major theorists in the area, from Hassan, Lyotard, Jameson and Foster to the architectural historian Charles Jencks, and also looks at analyses and uses of the concepts of the post-modern and post-industrial by Frampton, Portoghesi, Peter Fuller and some feminist critics." "This book provides a clear and much-needed guide to a highly controversial discussion. Book jacket."--Jacket.
