description: One of the most influential philosophers and cultural theorists of the twentieth century, Theodor Adorno poses a considerable challenge to students. His works can often seem obscure and impenetrable, particularly for those with little knowledge of the philosophical traditions on which he draws. A Guide for the Perplexed is an engaging and accessible account of his thought that does not patronise or short-change the reader.  Those new to Adorno - and those who have struggled to make headway with his work - will find this an invaluable clearly written, comprehensive and specifically focused on just what makes Adorno difficult to read and understand.
