"The ¿intertwined¿ biography of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari bears all the traits of Francois Dosse¿s previous work. It is scrupulously researched, written with verve, adroit and responsible in its handling of complex philosophical issues, and filled with hitherto unpublished details about the lives of its subjects and the often tempestuous events that surrounded them throughout their careers. An impressive and important study." ¿ Ronald Bogue, University of Georgia
