A book on Lacan that Zizek touts as not only "providing an excellent introduction into the fundamental coordinates of Jacques Lacan's conceptual network; it also proposes original solutions to (or at least clarifications of) some of the crucial dilemmas left open by Lacan's work." Couldn't we all use a bit of that. Clear, comprehensive, balanced. Princeton says it's invaluable.
