A Thousand Plateaus is the second part of Deleuze and Guattari's landmark philosophical project, Capitalism and Schizophrenia - a project that still sets the terms of contemporary philosophical debate. Written over a seven year period, A Thousand Plateaus provides a compelling analysis of social phenomena and offers fresh alternatives for thinking about philosophy and culture. Its radical perspective provides a toolbox for 'nomadic thought' and has had a galvanizing influence on today's anti-capitalist movement.

Great continuation of the previous book. soo ill paste in the previous review and add some more stuff.
One of the most important books i will proabably have red in my entire life. Topics tackled in them are universal and will influence your thinking 100%.
Every chapter introduces some new concept that challenges your train of thought.
Tough book to understand and personaly it took me more time to understand it than actually reading it. I recommend sitting with this one down and slowly create some kind of a map and notes from this.
Thats the only way to get this book and I mean - truly, understand it. It will be a challenge but the reward from it will proabably impact you forever.
People who say that its gibberish aren't 100% wrong. Sometimes it is - but thats also one of the points the book is trying to make. Its hard to read, unclear, repetitive and convoluted. But give it a chance and if you have the patience. the reward will be immeasurable.
