From the rear cover
'Jean Baudrillard covers an enormous amount of ground here: from the way he worked, his career, through his major ideas, to topics such as hatred and terrorism. Baudrillard is witty and inventive, defends and develops his ideas clearly and vigorously. A dazzling display. Sharp and fascinating.' Mike Gane, Loughborough University 23 interviews with the renowned French philosopher and cultural commentator Jean Baudrillard (1929-2007) was one of the world's most influential, celebrated and controversial thinkers. His remarkable insights and often provocative ideas are presented in their most accessible form in the many interviews he gave over the course of his career. The first book of interviews for over two decades, this volume contains material first published in English, French, German and Norwegian - including one interview translated into English for the first time. It contains 23 highly insightful yet previously difficult-to-find interviews, ranging over topics as diverse as art, war, technology, globalisation, terrorism and the fate of humanity. Richard G. Smith is Associate Professor in Human Geography at Swansea University. David B. Clarke is Professor of Human Geography, also at Swansea University.
