Product Description

Book Description

Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII. He is a key figure in poststructuralism, and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century.

Félix Guattari (1930-1992) was a psychoanalyst at the la Borde Clinic, as well as being a major social theorist and radical activist.

A Thousand Plateaus is part of Deleuze and Guattari’s landmark philosophical project, Capitalism and Schizophrenia – a project that still sets the terms of contemporary philosophical debate. A Thousand Plateaus provides a compelling analysis of social phenomena and offers fresh alternatives for thinking about philosophy and culture. Its radical perspective provides a toolbox for ‘nomadic thought’ and has had a galvanizing influence on today’s anti-capitalist movement.

Translated by Brian Massumi --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Playful and prescient. A classic of contemporary philosophy., 27 Mar 1997
By A Customer
A Thousand Plateaus is an absolute necessity for any serious reader of contemporary philosophy. Deleuze and Guattari correctly predicted the intensification of the stratification of "civilized society" by 1980; they also presaged the World Wide Web and declared their deep suspicions about any and all massive systems for networking humankind before the web ever existed. Their anarchic call for radical individual autonomy never sounded truer than now. (A noteworthy additional book to seek from their giant bibliography: Pierre Clastres' Society Against the State.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Challengingly imaginative philosophy, 6 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: A Thousand Plateaus (Paperback)
This is a book that challenges traditional philosophy stylistically and conceptually. The creative terminology applied by D & G fits their Nietzschean strand of philosophical thought nicely, even when it becomes difficult to follow at times. Subjects varying from linguistics to psychoanalysis are covered in a refreshingly non-linear order. Together with Anti-Oedipus, this book can inspire.

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning!!, 29 Jan 2007
This review is from: A Thousand Plateaus (Continuum Impacts): Capitaliism and Schizophrenia: 21 (Paperback)
This is a profound book. But do not buy this edition. I have had two seperate copies that have had the same fault with the binding, and amazon have confirmed that it is a recurring problem with this edition's manufacture. The edition looks lovely but is of terrible quality.
