Such passion, in a man whose work forms a shaky, cartoon rope-bridge between the minutiae of popular culture and the big abstract problems of existence, is invigorating, entertaining and expanding enquiring minds around the world. -- Helen Brown * Daily Telegraph * Zizek is to today what Jacques Derrida was to the 80s: the thinker of choice for Europe's young intellectual vanguard. * Observer * Fierce brilliance ... scintillating. -- Steven Poole * Guardian *

Zizek leaves no social or cultural phenomenon untheorized, and is master of the counterintuitive observation. - New Yorker One of the most innovative and exciting contemporary thinkers of the left. - Times Literary Supplement Few thinkers illustrate the contradictions of contemporary capitalism better than Slavoj Zizek ... one of the world's best-known public intellectuals. - John Gray, New York Review of Books A gifted speaker-tumultuous, emphatic, direct-he writes as he speaks. - Jonathan Ree, Guardian
