'Does a good job of introducting Derrida in a fresh and immediate way ... [Wood] is sensitive to Derrida's style of writing without letting it (for the most part) take over her own approachable idiom ... This book has many features that will be attractive to the undergraduate readership the series seeks ... [leaves] the reader wanting to reach for Writing and Difference itself - which, after all, is the point.' - French Studies "This is a fine addition to the Reader's Guide series. Sarah Wood has produced a book which can truly guide readers through the eleven essays in Derrida's Writing and Difference, but which does so without distorting Derrida's thought beyond recognition, without simplifying truly complicated ideas, and above all by staying faithful to the creative and 'literary' dimensions of Derrida's practices of reading, writing and thinking" - Professor Graham Allen, University College Cork, Ireland 'Does a good job of introducting Derrida in a fresh and immediate way ...
