Deleuzian Intersections : Science, Technology and Anthropology

Science and technology studies, cultural anthropology and cultural studies deal with the complex relations between material, symbolic, technical and political practices. In a Deleuzian approach these relations are seen as produced in heterogeneous assemblages, moving across distinctions such as the human and non-human or the material and ideal. This volume outlines a Deleuzian approach to analyzing science, culture and politics. Contents Acknowledgements Introduction Part I Deleuzian Sciences?
