Explaining Postmodernism

A provocative explanation of why postmodernism was the most vigorous intellectual movement of the 20th century. Philosopher Stephen Hicks explores European thought from Rousseau to Foucault to trace the path of relativist ideas from their inception to their peak in... the second half of the last century.
"Explaining Postmodernism" is a polemical history providing a fresh perspective on the debates about political correctness, multiculturalism, and the future of liberal democracy, as well as telling us how progressive leftists, looking to the future with optimism, turned into apologists for anti-science and cynicism, and why their influence remains significant among contemporary philosophers.
