This is the only book of its kind: it's a readable, yet expertly crafted, tour through the Frankfurt School, along with a forceful account of why the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory still matters a decade into the new millennium. I can't recommend it highly enough. Jeffrey T. Nealon, professor of English, Penn State University; co-editor of Rethinking the Frankfurt School
