Reviews

For Saint-Amand, the heroes of his book are figures of resistance. In their non-productivity, they provide a glimpse of a new ethics of freedom that runs counter to the demands of the bourgeois capitalist order... It is hard not to be seduced by his argument. -- Jeremy Jennings, Times Higher Education Supplement [An] intriguing little book. -- Jeremy Jennings, Times Higher Education
