Abstract

A radical new theory of the brain bridging science, philosophy, art, and politics

Tony D. Sampson unravels the conventional image of thought that underpins scientific and philosophical accounts of sense making, providing a new view of our current time in which capitalism and the neurosciences endeavor to colonize the brain. Drawing on Deleuze and Guattari, Sampson calls for a radical critical theory that operates in the interferences between philosophy, science, art, and politics.
