Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book offers a clear and coherent analysis of Deleuze and Guattari?s collaborations and argues that their work contains a distinct philosophical methodology that is designed to express the transformative nature of reality.
MoreLong description:
Deleuze and Guattari’s Philosophy of Transformation is an original study of the radical transformative thought of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. The book reveals the metaphysical underpinnings of Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophy and shows how, beneath the many references to specific moments of transformation, Deleuze and Guattari provide a complex philosophical framework, specifically designed to treat transformative processes as constitutive of reality.
Central to this study is an examination of the concept of the “line of flight” (ligne de fuite). By exposing the way in which this concept animates Deleuze and Guattari’s work, and by showing how it allows Deleuze and Guattari to theorise processes of radical transformation – from the evolutionary developments of biological species to the revolutionary breaks of political change – this book challenges readers with a novel vision of Deleuze and Guattari’s oeuvre as a methodical response to the philosophical problem of transformation.
