Derrida's Of Grammatology cover

Everything you need to know about Derrida's Of Grammatology in one volume. Jacques Derrida was one of the most famous philosophers of the later twentieth century and Of Grammatology is his best known text. This book will provide the first commentary on Of Grammatology which can be read alongside of -- rather instead of -- the text itself, by students encountering Derrida for the first time.

An excellent and stimulating guide that offers a remarkably clear and thorough explanation of the argument and vocabulary of Of Grammatology. Bradley succeeds admirably in the difficult task of rendering Derrida's text accessible whilst communicating effectively something of its uncanny nature and radical challenge to ingrained notions of the nature and task of reading and interpretation. A remarkable achievement that will be of huge benefit to students coming to Derrida's daunting text for the first time. -- Dr Jim Urpeth, University of Greenwich
