Biografisk notat
Gary Genosko is an independent researcher, writer and editor."This fine collection redirects our attention to Félix Guattari’s astonishing achievement. It will be a key document for those who want to grasp the compelling but mobile alliance of psychiatry, philosophy and politics with which Guattari continuously revolutionalized critical theory and clinical practice for over twenty-five years. To read it is to be haunted by one of the most challenging and yet sympathetic sensibilities of our time." – Mark Wigley, Princeton University

Index.
Aside from illustrating the salience of Guattari's collaborative work with Deleuze and other European intellectuals, this volume charts Guattari's own solo writing career - from his tenure as Lacan's analysand in the 1950s and his prominent role in the international anti-psychiatry movement of the 1960s through his participation in queer politics, outlaw radio, and the formation of subversive collective organizations. This volume provides an important register of Guattari's more political side, documenting his interventions in particular political conflicts in contemporary Europe.
Guattari's ideas and projects defy disciplinary boundaries and escape compartmentalization. They will appeal to those working in and between politics, philosophy, semiotics, psychoanalysis, sociology, and cultural studies.
