The authors set forth a theory that "Western society's innate herd instinct has allowed the government, the media, and even the principles of economics to take advantage of each person's unwillingness to be cut off from the group" and that "those who suffer from mental disorders my not be insane, but could be individuals in the purest sense."--Publisher's description.… (more)

This took me four years of on and off reading to finish.... I still don’t know what a fucking BwO is. ( )

This paled by comparison with A Thousand Plateaus. Maybe Brian Massumi is the better translator. Maybe Anti-Oedipus was the first waffle you're supposed to throw out when breaking in a new iron. Maybe Freud vs. Marx is too dated for our now apocalyptic times. But no matter, this book gets a full four stars as a probably necessary practice run for Plateaus, its successor masterpiece and champion. ( )

Este é um ótimo livro, mas exige bastante do leitor. Do Deleuze, foi o que tive mais dificuldade até hoje. Há muitas boas críticas contundentes, aqui. Além disso, essa obra foi muito importante à sua época, só algumas décadas atrás. Ao mesmo tempo, houve muitos assuntos discutidos aqui que não me interessavam de forma alguma, razão pela qual, terminada a leitura, achei este trabalho menos interessante do que quando havia começado a lê-lo. Ainda assim, àqueles mais voltados à psicologia, estou certo que encontrarão um bom arcabouço de recursos e discussões aqui. Para mim, não foi exatamente o que eu estava procurando. ( )
