There is a self in there, you assume, a small steady captain at the wheel, the same one who went to sleep the night before, the same one who will sign your name and remember your childhood and answer when called. Gilles Deleuze, one of the strangest and most exhilarating philosophers of the twentieth century, spent his life quietly dismantling that captain. He suspected the wheel turns whether or not anyone is holding it. This book is a guided tour through that suspicion.
