Nevertheless, the majority of scholarship on Lefebvre predominantly focuses on his theorizing of space, often taking Lefebvre’s \u003ci\u003eThe Production of Space \u003c\/i\u003eas the point of departure, and\/or on his theorizing of everyday life, with his multi-volume \u003ci\u003eCritique of Everyday Life \u003c\/i\u003eas the focal point. This book argues that it is Lefebvre’s concept of metaphilosophy that provides the connective tissues for these works, one that is chiefly concerned with deciphering the enigma of modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book will appeal to a wide interdisciplinary and international audience from the fields of sociology, philosophy, cultural studies, geography, the history of ideas, and literary studies. This includes scholars and students interested in Henri Lefebvre’s writings, everyday life, modernity, space\/time, leisure\/work, continental thought, critical theory, Marxism, and technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatrick Gamsby\u003c\/b\u003e is Scholarly Communications Librarian and is Cross Appointed at the Department of Sociology at Memorial University of Newfoundland.
