A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia

This highly significant philosophical work furthers and completes the work begun in Anti-Oedipus. Together the two volumes, linked by their subtitle 'Capitalism and Schizophrenia' are now regarded as the single most brilliant work of phislophy of the last 30 years. The book provides an analysis of social phenomena and offers fresh alternatives for thinking about history and social structures. It will be of importance in the fields of criticism and theory relating to literature, music and art. Beyond this, it will also be relevant to contemporary readers in sociology, anthropology, history and political science. A vital reference text for the study of relations between the 'first' and 'third' worlds.
