Reviews

John Armitage employing the perspective of continental philosophy across a careful, always enlightening, discussion of key thinkers dismantles the taken-for-granted ideas about luxury within contemporary Western societies. This is a powerful counterpoint to theorists in the analytic tradition and to those who uncritically accept the place of luxury today. * Christopher J. Berry, Author of Idea of Luxury (2011) *
