Summary: (M)other may I?
Review: Ah, Lacan...While the postmodern generation, driven to digital scriptololia and hiding beneath their cyber-covers dreaming of Hale-Bopp, continues to feed the yet burgeoning X-philes kitsch and cannabis industry, Lacan stands ready, armed with a bastion of certitude decked out in quagmire of tangled, crabbed, needling, Gallic, galling prose: beneath it all, the phallus, the objet a, the name-of-the-father, the Other of the Other, and jouissance, it all goes back to mom.

Summary: Excellent introduction texts
Review: The introduction articles for this book are worth the price of the book; they are clear, intelligent, and balanced. Other contributing writers vary from clear and didactic to veritable models of French obscuritanism, but for the reader interested in Lacanian theory and the debate about feminine sexuality, this book is well worth reading. Some of the points made in the introduction are key.
