Time, evolution, becoming, and genealogy are central concepts in Deleuze's work, yet there has been no sustained study of his philosophy in relation to the question of history. Those working in history, the history of ideas, science, evolutionary psychology, and interdisciplinary projects inflected by historical problems will benefit from this volume, which applies Deleuze's philosophy to historical method, describes the critical giant's own use of the history of philosophy, elaborates on his complex theories of time and evolution, and shares his interpretations of historical thinkers such as Hume and Nietzsche. Internationally renowned contributors include: Paul Patton, Manuel DeLanda, John Protevi, Ian Buchanan, Tim Flanagan, Keith Ansell Pearson, James Williams, Eve Bischoff, Miguel de Beistegui, and Jay Lampert.
