Reviews for This is Not a Diary
"If Bauman had posted the pieces of this book on the internet as he went along, it would have been the world's best blog. But I'm glad he didn't." Steven Poole, The Guardian "Bauman, like all the best teachers, encourages independent thinking and insists only that it is informed and above all critical ... Highly recommended." Morning Star
