This book offers a readable and compelling introduction to the work of one of the twentieth century's most important and elusive thinkers. Other books have tried to explain Deleuze in general terms. Todd May organizes his book around a central question at the heart of Deleuze's philosophy: how might we live? The author then goes on to explain how Deleuze offers a view of the cosmos as a living thing that provides ways of conducting our lives that we may not have dreamed of. Through this approach the full range of Deleuze's philosophy is covered. Offering a lucid account of a highly technical philosophy, Todd May's introduction will be widely read amongst those in philosophy, political science, cultural studies and French studies.

A "must-read" introduction

5 izar

Perhaps scholars of Deleuze would disagree, but as someone trying to get an understanding of the landscape of Deleuze's admittedly challenging philosophical thinking, I think May's book is a remarkably salient and clear introduction. I've returned to it a few times over the years, having gotten so interested in Deleuze's ideas that I've wondered off to read other related things. Finally finished it this February and really appreciated it from start to finish.
