Summary: A good Introduction to Baudrillard
Comment: Baudrillardfs works are very difficult to understand for ordinary readers who do not know much about him because his description is very rhetorical and constitutes his own view of the world and his style is very different from general theses or essays. This book is appropriate for people who want to know the elements of Baudrillardfs thoughts since it explains his strategy, view of the world, and main idea, gsimulationh. Each chapter is titled key word in Baudrillardfs discussions such as gTechnology and cultureh, gThe rigours of consumer societyh, gFrom production to reproductionh, and gModernity, simulation, and the hyperrealh. We can know how he has developed his theory in various fields. Especially, this book approaches his works both synchronically and diachronically, which is very helpful because his themes in works have always changed. Generally speaking, this book is written in plain English and the constitution is very good as an introductory book.
