Annotation

"Immensely provocative, Santner's work compels a deep rethinking of the question of modernity and of our persistent and seemingly inescapable sense that the world is out of joint.... The author does a brilliant job of situating Schreber's work and life in the specific context of fin-de-siecle Germany, " -- James Surowiecki, The Boston Phoenix Literary Section "Rarely does one come across a book that is so deeply satisfying.... It sets up a new standard for using psychoanalytic notions to analyze ideological and political phenomena. Once the impact of the book is felt, nothing will remain quite the same in the study of psychoanalysis and society." -- Slavoj Zizek
