Reviews
'A star-studded cast of commentators here offer their takes on Derrida's most famous work, clarifying its many difficulties and exploring its multifarious implications. A most valuable book.' -- Jonathan Culler, Professor of English, Cornell University, USA, "Rather than carve the Grammatology up into themes or sections imposed from without, the editors have divided their collection according to the letter of the divisions of Derrida's book. This offers practical advantages to the reader who may be searching for discusion of one particular passage...Some [contributions] are usefully orientated towards filling in the background context of a certain passage, where others are concerned to unpack the conceptual content of Derrida's technical vocabulary. A valuable few reach across large portions of the work, synthesising context, content, and structure...the strongest element of this book id that so may admirable readers of Derrida are gathered here together...Many of the entries here could serve as springboards for articles and research projects... Reading Derrida's Of Grammatology does succeed admirably in underscoring the overflowing brilliance of Derrida's book." --Andrew Dunstall, Radical Philosophy Review

    The "Latin Classics. Volume 2" CD is brand new, as stated in the ad.The disc itself is of good quality. The CD was packaged in a cardboard box, and unfortunately, the jewel case cracked during transportation and delivery, but the seller compensated for this issue by refunding 20% ​​of the order price. The seller always responds to customer messages, which is very nice. The seller is honest and respectable. I am very pleased with the purchase. Thank you very much! I wish the seller all the best!

    Very exceptional seller. Without me even asking , seller found a way to get product to me through US retailers so that product did not have to go through customs or did I have to pay import fees on my end. Product arrived as described in mint condition and considering what I saw this fairly scarce item going for elsewhere a VERY good Value. My thanks to the seller and they have won me over as a source for product that has to be ordered from UK
