Reviews

Genosko has long been our surest guide to Guattari’s thought, and here he puts that thought to work in wide-ranging studies of infocapital’s psychosocial predations and challenges. More than mere explication or mechanical application of Guattari’s concepts, these essays offer original and much-needed insights into the possibilities open to us for transforming contemporary institutions and mentalities. -- Ronald Bogue, Professor Emeritus of Comparative Literature, University of Georgia
