Reviews

In exploring the Deleuzian concepts of `Becoming-Animal' in The Island of Doctor Moreau, the `Body Without Organs' in The War of the Worlds, and `Nomadology' in The Time Machine, Starr's study asserts itself at the forefront of current postmodern and poststructuralist approaches to Wells. - The Wellsian Journal of the H.G. Wells Society
