Slavoj Žižek: a critical introduction by Ian Parker
Since the publication of his first book in English in 1989, Slavoj Zizek has quickly become one of the most widely read and contentious intellectuals alive today. With dazzling wit and tremendous creativity he has produced innovative and challenging explorations of Lacan, Hegel and Marx, and used his insights to exhilarating effect in analyses of popular culture. While Zizek is always engaging, he is also elusive and even contradictory. It can be very hard to finally determine where he stands on a particular issue.
An Introduction to Discourse Analysis, Theory and Method by James Paul Gee “If you only read one book on discourse analysis, this is the one to read. If you’re a specialist, you’ll find much to enjoy here as well. Gee’s book shows us that discourse analysis is about a lot more than linguistic study; it will help us all to see how to keep from, as he says, ‘getting physically, socially, culturally, or morally “bitten” by the world’.”
