During their lives, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari were two of
France's most prominent thinkers, and their work continues to be a
vital and influential part of critical theory. The essays in this
collection, written by prominent scholars, offer a new approach to
their work. Unique in its emphasis on Guattari, both in conjunction
with Deleuze and independently, this volume features an essay by
Deleuze himself and includes a comprehensive bibliography of
Guattari's and Deleuze's work.
The body of work explored here spans three decades and cuts
across the lines of philosophy, political theory, geography,
literature, aesthetics, and even the applied sciences. Readers
unfamiliar with Deleuze and Guattari will gain a broad sense of
their work from these pages; specialists will discover new and
different methods of understanding the contributions of these
writers.
The essays map out a set of applications that, rather than
explain Deleuze and Guattari, aim to extend and reinvent their
thought in new and "real life" domains, from cinema to the Gulf
War, from quantum mechanics to the L.A. riots, and from Israel's
deportation of Palestinians to Jean-Jacques Rousseau's masochism.
Overall, the collection demonstrates the wide range of potential
applications of Deleuze's and Guattari's theories and expands
current readings of their work.
