"Sociologists ... who wish to grasp the breadth and depth of Simmel, and to gain another perspective on modernism, will find this book indispensable." -- Symbolic Interaction

Anticipating contemporary deconstructive readings of philosophical texts, Georg Simmel pits the two German masters of philosophy of life against each other in a play of opposition and supplementation. This first English translation of Simmel's work includes an extensive introduction, providing the reader with ready access to the text by mapping its discursive strategies.
