- Summary:
- This absolutely essential student reference is an up-to-date of Raymond Williams' infamous text Keywords for the 21st Century. The book provides definitions for the key terms every student in the humanities and social sciences needs to know. Written in a very accessible and lucid style, the book has huge potential for students across the humanities and 'soft' social science subjects. Megawords is not simply a glossary, rather it is a map of the links between ideas and concepts in the humanities and without which no self-respecting student should set sail.
