A Shock to Thought

by Brian Massumi (Editor), Paul Bains (Contributor), Bracha Lichtenberg Ettinger (Contributor)

A Shock to Thought brings together essays that explore Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy of expression in a number of contemporary contexts. It will be of interest to all those in philosophy, cultural studies and art theory. The volume also contains an interview with Guattari which clearly restates the 'aesthetic paradigm' that organizes both his and Deleuze's work.
