Janell Watson is Associate Professor of French at Virginia Tech University, USA. Her previous publications include Literature and Material Culture from Balzac to Proust (CUP, 1999).

"This is an exacting explication of Guattari's key conceptual innovations over the course of his career. What emerges from the furious detail and clean disassembly of the nuts and bolts of schizoanalytic diagrams is an intellectual portrait of Guattari as a militant cartographer of a universe perfused with machines. Watson ingeniously reveals how Guattari hot-wired Lenin and Lacan for the wild ride he took into molecular revolution, the implications of which for emerging species of subjectivity we are only beginning to grasp." - Gary Genosko, Canada Research Chair, Lakehead University, Canada
