Book Synopsis
These essays provide important interpretations and analyze critical developments in the political philosophy of Gilles Deleuze.

Trade Review
"[A] masterful exegete of Deleuze . . . Patton has an insight into Deleuze's texts which makes his commentary invaluable. What is more, this mastery includes both Deleuze's solo writings, as well as his collaborations with Guattari, a distinct advantage in a field of Deleuzian commentators who tend to be comfortable primarily with one or the other. . . [A] deep boon for our understanding of Deleuze." -- Simon Glezos * Philosophy in Review *
"Patton's book is an important and innovative contribution to Deleuze studies and to contemporary debates in philosophy and the humanities. His arguments are convincing and stimulating: they open the way for a new and sober reading of Deleuze and bring him into dialogue with the tradition of political liberalism and pragmatism. His use of the concept of the event to understand the history of colonization gives the reader a compelling example of what the political function of philosophy is, or could be." -- Paola Marrati * Johns Hopkins University *
