In Ecclesiastes, Solomon states that"all is vapor" and describes humans as trying to"shepherd the wind." In_Solomon among the Postmoderns_, author Peter J. Leithart uses these claims, as well as the entire book of Ecclesiastes, to show how Solomon resonated with postmodernism.

Exploring the strengths and weaknesses of postmodernism, Leithart shows how the theory reflects an important biblical theme: the elusiveness and instability of the world. But he goes on to show that biblical faith takes us beyond cynicism and despair._Solomon among the Postmoderns_will appeal to academics and laypeople alike seeking a biblical view of postmodernism.
