The initial chapters are workmanlike and technically savvy about BAFs' concepts, charming and clear and recommended for beginners in that it won't talk down to them. The later chapter on Deleuze seems as optimistic for the implications of his thought as it is an encapsulation of everything objectionable about him. Apropos nihil, was this book even proofread?

Takeaway:
"Although Capital, like the Bible, is more widely discussed than carefully read, there are certain ways in which 'we have all read, and all do read Capital' (13)."

یک کتاب فلسفی نیست، کتابی است راجع به فلسفه. بیشتر شبیه نت برداریهایی است که بعدا به سراغ آنها رفته و تحت شیوه خاصی نگارش میکنی. مهمترین تضاد متنی آن این است که نویسنده خود این سه را با هم نشانده و در فصل پایانی به همین امر معترض است
