Monday, September 17, at 3 p.m., Eduardo Velasquez, professor of politics at W&L, will appear on NPR affiliate WMRA’s Insight show to discuss his new book “A Consumer’s Guide to the Apocalypse.”
Charles Griswold, professor of philosophy at Boston University calls it an unusual and stimulating book in the philosophy of culture. “His range of topics is broad; his insights about particular cultural products as well as about what he takes to be the pervasive theme of the apocalypse are intriguing; and his conclusions about what American cultural and popular artistic productions say about who we are will surprise and provoke many readers. This controversial book is well worth reading."
