This is the first detailed assessment of the life and work of Felix Guattari--"Mr. Anti" as the French press labelled him--the friend of and collaborator with Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan and Antonio Negri, and one of the 20th Century's last great activist-intellectuals. Guattari is widely known for his celebrated writings with Deleuze, but these writings do not represent the true breadth and impact of his thinking, writing and activism. Guattari's major work as a clinical and theoretical innovator in psychoanalysis was closely linked to his participation in struggles against European right-wing politics. Felix Guattari introduces the reader to the diversity and sheer range of Guattari's interests, from anti-psychiatry, to Japanese culture, political activism and his theorizing of subjectification.Highlighting why Guattari's work is of increasing relevance to contemporary political, psychoanalytical and philosophical thought, Felix Guattari: An Aberrant Introduction presents the reader with an adventurous and provocative introduction to this radical thinker.
Industry Reviews
'...Another hugely significant contribution to work in the field of immanent and materialist conceptions of philosophy inspired by the work of Deleuze and Guattari is Gary Genosko's Felix Guattari: An Aberrant Introduction...Genesko's work stands alone in the world as the only detailed investigation of the life and work of the psychoanalyst-philosopher-activist available at this time in any language, including French...copious research and attention to detail that mark his book out...As a document of the life and work of Guattari, Felix Guattari: An Aberrant Introduction is not only a scholarly achievement, but, it is also an aberrant gesture worthy of the book's title and of Guattari himself...As as addition to Continuum's Transversals series it is most welcome and, more than that, it provides a potential manifesto for future publications in this series.'--Sanford Lakoff "Immanence "
