Félix Guattari

Sobre el libro Félix Guattari de Gary Genosko publicado por Continuum al 2006:

"The first comprehensive introduction to the thought of Felix Guattari to appear in any language, by the world´s foremost expert on his work. Genosko skillfully presents the semiotic, psychiatric, and political underpinnings of Guattari´s philosophy and activism. A most helpful initiation for new Guattari readers, and an indispensable companion volume for those already familiar with his writing." Brian Massumi This is the first detailed assessment of the life and work of Filix 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. Filix Guattari introduces the reader to the diversity and sheer range of Guattari´s interests, from anti-psychiatry, to Japanese culture, political activism and his theorising of subjectification.
