"This book confronts an important and timely subject from a unique point of view. The subject is literacy, certainly a major topic of both public and professional discussion today. The special point of view is the question of the relation of critical theory, more particularly 'rhetorical reading' of 'deconstruction' to the problem of literacy. The argument is that 'critical theory' has a fundamental and irreplaceable pedagogical contribution to make to the enhancement of literacy. Sussman's book makes a brilliant contribution to the thinking through of the question it poses."--J. Hillis Miller, University of California, Irvine
