Searching for the Light cover

Norman Birnbaum is one of the most influential social critics in contemporary America. These essays, selected from his writings of the past twenty years, show the recent evolution and transformation of Marxist thought into the current `post-Marxist' age.

Norman Birnbaum is one of our few genuine social theorists--philosophically sophisticated, far-ranging, perfectly familiar with European as well as American thinkers. Tough-minded, witty, challenging, he is always worth reading. Searching for the Light is a rich and rewarding book. * Peter Brooks, Yale University *
