"The most formidably brilliant exponent of [[psychoanalysis]], indeed of [[cultural ]] [[theory ]] in general, to have emerged from [[europe ]] in some decades." - Terry Eagleton

'One of the most innovative and exciting contemporary thinkers of the [[left]].' TLS

The [[Universal ]] Exception is the second volume of the collected key writings of Slavoj [[Zizek ]] - one of the most provocative and inspiring writers on [[culture ]] at [[work ]] today. Collecting together a broad selection of Zizek's major writings on [[politics]], The Universal Exception showcases Zizek's formidable range of interests and his style. The book includes his writings on such [[right]]-wing icons as Ayn Rand and Leni Riefenstahl; his take on the [[logic ]] of [[capitalism ]] and the condition of contemporary radical politics; and his views on major current [[global ]] issues and events, including the [[Iraq ]] war. Together with Interrogating the [[Real]], the first volume of Zizek's selected writings, this collection offers a superb introduction to the work of this prolific, controversial and vastly entertaining cultural commentator.
