Rezensionen
"Rob Weatherill asks questions based on his life's work and research about contemporary culture and psychical organisation that few venture to ask. The provocations of this book will challenge, inspire and stimulate. Rob engages the reader with the most serious and consequential issues of our time. Read this and you will not emerge unmoved by Rob's deep concerns about the state of our world."

Dr Eve Watson, Psychoanalyst, Dublin; co-editor, Critical Essays on the Drive in Lacanian Theory and Practice (Routledge)





"Through his books and lectures on psychoanalysis and the malaise of contemporary Western civilisation, Rob Weatherill has been among the key intellectual influences on my life. His books are frightening, urgent, dizzying in their range and erudition, and consistently willing to explore the bleakest, most harrowing corners of life in an atomised and apocalyptic culture. Moreover, by virtue of Weatherill's insistence on the need for a moral and spiritual bulwark against the ravages of untrammelled capitalism on the psyche, his work is actively countercultural. There are precious few writers engaged with his themes and concerns."

Rob Doyle, author, Threshold

"I am delighted to recommend very warmly the new work of Rob Weatherill. I was very impressed with his previous work, The Anti-Oedipus, whose characteristic excellences the current work also displays. I found it illuminating in an intrepid way, courageous in an enlivening way, and wise in a discerning way. Weatherill trenchantly reminds us of 'home-truths' about the mess we have often made of things. That said, and not least, Weatherill, has something of the redeeming eye of the comic for our current self-incurred absurdities. Very warmly recommended."
