This controversial work examines postmodernism from a non-Western
perspective, and exposes its claims as a sham. Sardar makes a systematic
assessment of the salient spheres of postmodernism - from philosophy and
architecture, to film, music and new age religions - and reveals that,
contrary to commonly-held notions, postmodernism operates to further
marginalise the reality of the non-West and confound its aspirations.
