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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCentral to this study is an examination of the concept of the \"line of flight\" (\u003ci\u003eligne de fuite\u003c\/i\u003e). 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThornton, Edward:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Edward Thornton is a researcher and historian of philosophy whose work concerns the broad question of how different systems of thought interact with power.
