But the book is much more than this: in the course of his investigation the author provides a social and semantic history – from the Enlightenment to the present – of modernism and its expression in political and social ideas and movements, as well as in art, literature and architecture. He considers in particular how the meaning and perception of time and space themselves vary over time and space, and shows that this variance affects individual values and social processes of the most fundamental kind.
This book will be widely welcomed, not only for its clear and critical account of the arguments surrounding the propositions of modernity and post–modernity, but as an incisive contribution to the history of ideas and their relation to social and political change.
"Few people have penetrated the heartland of contemporary cultural theory and critique as explosively or insightfully as David Harvey." Edward Soja
"David Harvey′s book is probably the best yet written on the link between ... economic and cultural transformations." Financial Times
"David Harvey′s engrossing book is probably the most readable, ambitious, and intelligent work on postmodernism yet published." Voice Literary Supplement
"In Harvey′s skilful hands various strands of contemporary life, normally held far apart by specialized scholarly interests, come together again and are shown to fit with each other ... a marvellous, enjoyable and mind–opening book." Times Literary Supplement
