The Broken Middle offers a startlingly original rethinking of the modern philosophical tradition and fundamentally rejects the opposition of post-modernity to philosophy. Extending across the disciplines from philosophy to theology, Judaica, law, social and political theory, literary criticism, feminism and architecture, this book stakes itself on a renewed potential for sustained critique. Against the grain of contemporary thought, this work of criticism offers the reader a way beyond the spurious alternative of 'totalization' or acknowledgement of 'the other'.
