A Shock to Thought brings together essays that explore Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy of expression in a number of contemporary contexts. It will be of interest to all those in philosophy, cultural studies and art theory. The volume also contains an interview with Guattari which clearly restates the 'aesthetic paradigm' that organizes both his and Deleuze's work.

Review
'There is no doubt that many, if not most, of the publications cursorily considered here will contribute extensively to the increasingly fraught debates around immanence-related topics, making for some engaging, significant and exciting developments in the next few years.' - Critical and Cultural Theory

"Thought does not reflect the real - it is the real",
By gman ".o0desiring-machine0o." (Philadelphia, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Shock to Thought: Expression after Deleuze and Guattari (Philosophy & Cultural Studies) (Paperback)
This collection of essays, edited by Brian Massumi, is an impressive exploration of the implication of Deleuze-Guattarian thought for the philosophy of communication. True, as Massumi notes in his excellent introduction, 'communication' is a fraught and inconsistently used term in their work. But insofar as that term gestures at the intersection of thought/expression/sense/sensation/life, then it better than any other expresses the book's collective endeavor. While I have not read all of the pieces as yet, the half dozen or so I've managed to get to thus far are all excellent.
