Post-Modernism Reader
W.T.Anderson (ed: 1995)
Finding an accessible way into post- modernist ideas is not as difficult as it was a couple of years ago (most textbooks now give it some coverage), but this Reader is a little gem for teachers (mainly) who want to expand their knowledge of this area. A variety of short readings (most are 3 - 4 pages) cover a wide range of concepts in a clear and informative way (there are, of course, some exceptions - this is, after all, a text on post-modernism...). However, I haven't found a better book that treats post-modernist ideas seriously - but not always too seriously (check-out Stephen Katz's "How to speak and write postmodern"...).

Introducing Postmodernism
R.Appignanesi and C.Garrett (1999)
Originally called "Postmodernism for Beginners", it's not hard to see why they changed the title (unless, of course, the authors thought it might be funny to sucker unsuspecting teachers / students - a "joke" that may well have backfired...). Whatever else it may be, this is not a book for beginners. It is, however, a headlong-rush through the basic principles of postmodernist theory, from its origins, its application to Art and its most well-known advocates (in a variety of academic disciplines).

The third section ("The Genealogy of Postmodern History") is probably the most accessible part for A-level teachers / students since it starts to apply postmodern ideas to media, lifestyle and identity not, it must be said, with a great deal of conviction or insight.

Sociology of Postmodernism - Scott Lash - Synopsis: This authoritative and revealing book provides the first sociological examination of postmodernism. Lash examines the differences between modernism and postmodernism, providing a clear explanation of why postmodernism is important. Publisher: Routledge, an imprint of Taylor & Francis Books Lt. ISBN: 0415047854

Roads to Dystopia - Sociological Essays on the Postmodern Condition - Stanford M. Lyman
2002 Mid-South Sociological Association Book Award - http://www.uark.edu/~uaprinfo/titles/backlist/nonfiction/lyman.html
If the postmodern condition is a dystopia characterized by alienation and despair, argues distinguished sociologist Stanford Lyman, postmodern epistemologies compound the problem by denigrating Enlightenment philosophies that still offer agency and hope to those who struggle to be free. In this, his sixth volume in the Studies in American Sociology series, Lyman examines this contradiction as it has shaped American discourses on race and community, asking why Gunnar Myrdal's "American Dilemma" is still unresolved; how Chinese workers have fared in the labor movement and in labor history; what searches for "the lost tribes of Israel" have meant socially and historically; how cinema has offered metaphors for social action but presented failed utopias on screen; and how we have not yet established a basic definition of "the good life." In each of these instances, Lyman seeks new routes in the quest for justice.
