"This comprehensive and accessible new study approaches the ways in which Derrida's theory of deconstruction has been used against a background of Derrida's own view than deconstruction shouldn't be used as a methodology. Written in a jargon-free style and with a student-friendly structure, the study has its inception in Derrida's Letter to a Japanese Friend and will be of use and significance to all students and scholars of Derrida."--Jacket.
