I mean, Efland is just so smart. It seems like everything I've read by him has been wrapped in perfect glittery paper for me to unfold. Yeah, he's that good at informational writing. He's not super passionate (and I get this was written by three people, but I haven't read anything by the other two and he is first author), but he makes up for it by spanning historical trends in succinct, effective ways. I'm taking a post qualitative class this semester and reading this book actually helped me understand those concepts more. In his definition, postmodern does not mean devoid of meaning. He also makes a strong argument for why education should consider moving into postmodernism.
