Reviews

Laruelle's work is ground-breaking, but he is virtually unknown in the English-speaking world. This will certainly change with Gangle's translation of this indispensable text, which is probably the most important summation of Laruelle's 'non-philosophy'. - Kenneth Surin, Duke University, USA

Laruelle's work is ground-breaking, but he is virtually unknown in the English-speaking world. This will certainly change with Gangle's translation of this indispensable text, which is probably the most important summation of Laruelle's 'non-philosophy'. - Kenneth Surin, Duke University, USA Laruelle's project of 'Non-Philosophy' aims at nothing less than a re-vision of what counts as thought, taking it well beyond the hype of philosophical mastery and into a materialism that positions philosophy as just one kind of thinking [...] this long awaited translation serves as an excellent entry-point for the Anglophone reader into this absolutely democratic vision of thought. -- John O Maoilearca, Kingston University of London, UK
