"The first comprehensive introduction to the thought of Felix Guattari to appear in any language, by the world's foremost expert on his work. Genosko skillfully presents the semiotic, psychiatric, and political underpinnings of Guattari's philosophy and activism. A most helpful initiation for new Guattari readers, and an indispensable companion volume for those already familiar with his writing."--Brian Massumi

'...Another hugely significant contribution to work in the field of immanent and materialist conceptions of philosophy inspired by the work of Deleuze and Guattari is Gary Genosko's Félix Guattari: An Aberrant Introduction...Genesko's work stands alone in the world as the only detailed investigation of the life and work of the psychoanalyst-philosopher-activist available at this time in any language, including French...copious research and attention to detail that mark his book out...As a document of the life and work of Guattari, Félix Guattari: An Aberrant Introduction is not only a scholarly achievement, but, it is also an aberrant gesture worthy of the book's title and of Guattari himself...As as addition to Continuum's Transversals series it is most welcome and, more than that, it provides a potential manifesto for future publications in this series.'
