The reviewed book is a posthumously published work of the outstanding British sociologist Z. Bauman, whose title reflects the phenomenon of the state of modern society-nostalgia for the past. The author notes that behind Z. Bauman's pessimistic sentiments is his desire to develop strategies for mankind to find possible ways to move into the future, connected with the hope of change.
