However, it did not work.The text is largely based on comic-style pictures. A cursory glance might lead one to think, "Wow, this sure looks like fun! What an easy way to learn about these complicated theories!" However, I did not finish this book with a firm understanding of any of the concepts presented. I did learn some new vocabulary, but I did not leave with a solid understanding of any of it, nor would I be able to explain it to another person.The book quickly became irritating. It was not enjoyable or fun. The other books used in my course, which were much more clear and to-the-point, were far more helpful in explaining these concepts. This was a waste of two hours of my life.Most of the other students in my course agreed with my view. However, there were a couple who enjoyed this text as a break from the other books we were using, but these students were also not able to adequately explain structuralism/post-structuralism after the reading.If you are a professor who insists on using this book in a course (which I do not recommend), I would highly recommend assigning a different reading on structuralist and post-structuralist thought BEFORE having your students read this book. Perhaps starting this book with some understanding might make it easier to grasp the points made by the silly comics and pictures. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clothing the emperors? *by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2009* After reading this I rhought I understood a little more of these writers than I did before, but that's not saying much. At the very least it gives potted biographies of Saussure, Levi-Strauss, Barthes, Lacan, Foucault and Derrida and an idea of how they related to each other and how to pronounce their names. Their works are sometimes so obscure that sometimes there's a suspicion that they write meaningless nonsense. Some British and American philosophers have expressed this suspicion openly, and it would have been fun to see Palmer answer them. For myself I'm still assuming I'm just too stupid to understand them fully, and this was more readable than the original works. It would have been even heavier going without the illustrations. I think that their simple and amateurish artistic quality is an asset in encouraging the reader to grapple with the text. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Accurate but a little too basic *by S***9 on Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2011* I am by no means a scholar or student, just some that wanted to learn a little more about these words I kept hearing. The book turned out to be pretty informative and as far as I can tell pretty accurate. That being said, my complaint with the book was that it appears to have been aimed at about a high school reading level. I found it to be a little too simplistic for my tastes. I'm sure there are folks that this book would be perfect for, unfortunately, it was not what I was looking for. I was hoping for a little more depth. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/9154170-structuralism-and-poststructuralism-for-beginners-paperback-august-21-2007](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/9154170-structuralism-and-poststructuralism-for-beginners-paperback-august-21-2007) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
