  • a brilliant new book by Zygmunt Bauman - one of the most creative social
    thinkers writing today;
  • a highly original analysis of migrant populations, refugees and other
    populations which are the 'outcasts' of modernity;
  • shows that the problem of how to cope with these 'superfluous' populations,
    the 'human waste' of modernization, goes to the heart of what modernity and
    globalization are all about;
  • this is Bauman at his best - highly original, very well written and very
    topical.
