Title: An amazingly shallow book
Review: With his elaborate language T E is amazingly shallow, when it comes to critizing postmodernist thought. When postmodernists say that humans cannot and will never understand a system from within that system itself E replies that "a certain capcity for critical self-reflection belongs to the way the human animal belongs to its world". Shamelessly E makes a law of what he has to prove! Rationalism, universalism (which E stands for) are bankrupt. Relativism and postmodernism are also bankrupt, but E doesn't understand how (that one mirrors the other). And he doesn't realize that there is a third alternative: there is a truth but no interpreters. This third alternative merges authority with non-authority and deletes both rationalism and relativism.Gunnar OdhnerSwedish author and philosopher
