520 0# - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Steven B. Smith examines the concept of modernity, not as the end product of historical developments but as a state of mind. He explores modernism as a source of both pride and anxiety, suggesting that its most distinctive characteristics are the self-criticisms and doubts that accompany social and political progress. Providing profiles of the modern project's most powerful defenders and critics<U+2014>from Machiavelli and Spinoza to Saul Bellow and Isaiah Berlin<U+2014>this provocative work of philosophy and political science offers a novel perspective on what it means to be modern and why discontent and sometimes radical rejection are its inevitable by-products.--OverDrive.
