A magnificent book. Deleuze and Time is a compendium of outstanding essays from some of Deleuze's best readers, each addressing, from a different perspective, the fundamental problematic of Deleuze's thought: the being of time itself.

- Joe Hughes, University of Melbourne,

Deleuze’s thought on the nature of temporality developed throughout his career in reference to a complex array of concepts, thinkers and artistic works as well as natural and social phenomena. In this collection, leading international scholars elaborate on Deleuze’s modification of the thought of historical figures, from the ancients – Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, Lucretius – through to the moderns – Spinoza, Kant, Husserl, Nietzsche, Bergson, Simondon, Negri – as well as his use of scientific fields such as complexity theory and thermodynamics. The book shows that the philosophy of time was central to the development of Deleuze’s work. In addition to discussing how time is conceptualised in Difference and Repetition and The Logic of Sense, this collection stands out for its elucidation of Deleuze’s modification of the concept in his two books on cinema.
