Adorno is one of the most important philosophers and social thinkers of the 20th Century. He was the leading figure in the Frankfurt School, along with Walter Benjamin and Max Horkheimer.
This book is the next volume in the series of his unpublished lectures, now made available in English for the first time by Polity.
This book explains the thinking behind his core philosophical position – what he calls ‘negative dialectics'.
Like the other books in this series, this book is very readable and accessible, as it is presented in the discursive style of a lecture. It is much more accessible than his formal books, and therefore works extremely well as an introduction to Adorno's thinking.
