`The new introduction is a fine piece of work ... the book is even
more timely today than it was fifteen years ago when the first
edition was published' - Christopher Lasch, author of The Culture
of Narcissism
`Escape Attempts pays homage to the diverse, often ingenious ways
in which people everywhere set about constructing fragile
architecture round themselves capable of withstanding the dreary
pressures not just of `paramount reality' but of sociological
theory itself' - Dick Hebdidge, author of Hiding In The Light
