This book shows the ways in which Deleuze's thought can in fact advance issues in political and feminist theology in particular, exploring the important theological and spiritual aspirations contained in Deleuze's philosophy itself, as part of his lifelong quest for the Absolute.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e‘Deleuze  professed to be looking for a form beyond God and Man.   Despite  this, the writings of Deleuze and Guattari are full of resonances for the  theological thinker.   These resonances are at once suggestive and  problematic, and Justaert captures them in all their amplitude in an excellent  work which brings many insights to the thought of Deleuze and Guattari.' -- Kenneth Surin, Professor of Literature and Professor of Religion and Critical Theory, Duke University, USA\u003cbr\u003e‘The mutual interaction proposed by  Kristien Justaert between some major theological issues and the key  features of Gilles Deleuze's thought proves very fruitful for the unfolding of  a philosophical framework urgently needed in the field of liberation  theologies. She illustrates convincingly how faithfulness to real life in its  creative action amidst the possibilities it harbours opens spaces for ethical  and political commitment in ever renewed community building at all levels of  reality. These perspectives allow liberation theologians to rejuvenate their  thought and action amidst today's major global challenges.' -- Jacques Haers, Professor of Theology at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and Academic Director of UCSIA in Antwerp, Belgium \u003cbr\u003e‘The book is striking for its  even-handed and open-ended approach to both Deleuze and to theology, sensitive  to the complex nature of spiritual categories in Deleuze's thought as well as  to the intricate ways theological thought and practice have been constructed  and contested in history. A provocative and compelling manifesto for religious  and political experimentation.' -- Joshua Ramey, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Haverford College, USA and author of The Hermetic Deleuze: Philosophy and Spiritual Ordeal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction; Part I: Deleuze's God; 1.
