Operating without a form, essence, or original according to which becoming comes to be, Whitehead, Deleuze, and Butler share an attentiveness to that which has never been before. This volume promises a kind of newness at all levels: it stages an unprecedented conversation among thinkers committed to the unprecedented.\u003cb\u003e---—Mary Jane Rubenstein, \u003ci\u003eWesleyan University\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49406127604055,"sku":"9780823232086","price":72.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780823232086.jpg?v=1730494622","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/secrets-of-becoming-9780823232086","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
