"How often are your attempts to understand the world we live in frustrated by terms and allusions which baffle you by their unfamiliarity? The aim of this book is to present, in a single volume, a guide to the ideas, discoveries, trends and movements which have shaped our world." "The book includes such diverse subjects as anthropology, world history, critical theory, economics, education, philosophy, the arts, architecture, medicine, law, geography, linguistics, criminology, feminism, sociology, archaeology, religion, maths, psychology, and the sciences." "The Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought has been continuously in print in earlier editions for more than twenty years. The New Fontana Dictionary of Modern Thought contains some 4000 entries by 326 expert contributors. Nearly 1000 entries are entirely new; and most of those that survive from the previous (1988) edition have been substantially revised or newly written for this edition."--BOOK JACKET
