“There is originality in the essays and much to learn about the mischief of language, fair in its face but foul in the use. The book is extremely instructive and profoundly enjoyable, especially for those who desire to expose the ‘rhetoric of Othering.’ The reviewer would like to warn the reader that he must pause and ponder if he is to gain the full savor of the points made by the sensitive intellectuals who have contributed articles to the book. A wealth of information, unusually assembled, is what is offered to the reader. The while culture, the big corporate verbiage and fragile feedoms dressed in inspiring diction are what one will see in the chapters. The book is worth the time and money spent on it.” V. R. Kirshna Iyver, The Hindu, February 3, 1998. |
