Title: Philosophy you can read and maybe even understand!!!
Review: After having long-suffered the hyped-up mumbojumbo of all that post-structuralist goobledegook and/or boring and infuriating cryptophila that has been running rampant in philosophy for years now, it's always a pleasure to find a book of philosophy filled with complex and beautiful ideas that you can actually read and perhaps even understand. Not that it's always an easy task grasping the multitude of relationships between the ideas that he outlines as constituting our notions of modern selfhood. But since such an undertaking is expressed so eloquently and thoroughly in this sprawling tome, "Sources of the Self" seems more than worth the trouble. If, like me, you're tired of all those knuckleheads spouting mindless half-understood deconstructionist platitudes and whatnot...buy this book! Taylor is good...damn good!
