A zigzagging journey across unique singularities of words, flesh, art and organisms inflected within each other entirely newly unravelled through Asian cartographies of sense and affect. This volume creates flowering dynamic dialogues that elucidate the rhizomatic reaches of Deleuze and the gift his philosophy brings to both understanding and creating new heterogeneous global connections.

Patricia MacCormack, Professor of Continental Philosophy at Anglia Ruskin University

It is an intellectual adventure of the first order to join these zig-zagging East-West journeys, as new encounters that split open the assumed world come to seem possible, and affective voyages remake the gestures composing territories. A fresh and eye-opening take on the meaning of the Asian century, re-imagined as also a Deleuzian century.

Fiona Jenkins, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Australian National University

A sharp and timely collection; and one like no other. Each chapter sets up a fascinating interaction between the trio of: Deleuzian and Deleuzo-Guattarian theory; inventive approaches to aesthetics, politics, ethics, culture and knowledge; and East Asian contexts of thought and practice.

Matthew Fuller, Professor of Cultural Studies, Goldsmiths, University of London

The well known theorist of the Posthuman and the Nomadic Subject, Rosi Braidotti, with Amy Chan and Kin Yuen Wong of the University of Hong Kong, has staged this first remarkable encounter between Eastern and Western readers of Deleuze, by putting together a brilliant collection of essays distinguished by the judicious choice of its subjects, the calibre of its contributors, the lucidity of their presentation, and the strength of their argumentation. The volume will be an indispensable reading for all those interested in the transversal relationship between Deleuze's philosophy of Life and Difference and the Asian naturalistic and holistic tradition; in a joint East/West effort to displace anthropocentrism in favour of a sustainable, nomadic subjectivity; and in a transcultural attempt to revitalize the traditional Humanities, inside the new alliance between philosophy, science and the arts, capable of regaining the trace of the Deleuzo-Guattarian itinerary.
