About this title: Few concepts have been so intensely discussed or so widely sponsored as that of 'ideology'. Whether read as the expression of social classes or attributed a material independence and efficacy, whether devalued as false and non-scientific or asserted as the necessary element of social practice, 'ideology' has become an ineluctable conceptual reference across a range of works dealing with subjects as varied as science and politics, gender and cultural production.

"This book really is dry...the intention is well-meaning, but just impossible to finish properly right now. So I moved on to Minima Moralia with chapters like "Johnny-head-in-air", "Knackery", "The truth about Hedda Gabler" and "More haste, less speed". Should be mind-hurting but entertaining at least..."
