This impressive collection of essays demonstrates how far Deleuzian research has moved into a new phase of engagement with fundamental questions in the humanities and sciences. It reflects the recent turn towards normative issues in Deleuzian philosophy, not only in the domains of political and legal philosophy in which they have been prominent but also in new areas such as epistemology, aesthetics and visual art. It provides informative and rigorous application of Deleuzian ideas to problems arising in philosophy, economics, literature and cognitive science. <i>Revisiting Normativity with Deleuze</i> truly represents the 'state of the art' in contemporary Deleuze studies.
- Paul Patton, Professor of Philosophy at the University of New South Wales, Australia,
