Gilles Deleuze described Laruelle's thought as 'one of the most interesting undertakings of contemporary philosophy'. Now, Rocco Gangle – who translated Laruelle's philosophy into English – takes you through Laruelle's trailblazing book 'Philosophies of Difference', helping you to understand both Laruelle's critique of Difference and his project of non-philosophy, which has become one of the most intriguing avenues in contemporary thought. He explains the context within which Laruelle's thought developed and takes you through the challenging argument and conceptual scaffolding of 'Philosophies of Difference'.

Rocco Gangle is Professor of Philosophy at Endicott College. He is the author of several books, including Diagrammatic Immanence: Category Theory and Philosophy (EUP), François Laruelle’s Philosophies of Difference: A Critical Introduction and Guide and, with Gianluca Caterina, Iconicity and Abduction (Springer), as well as dozens of journal articles and chapters in the areas of logic, phenomenology, semiotics, and philosophy of science. He is also a scholar and translator of the work of François Laruelle and co-director of the Center for Diagrammatic and Computational Philosophy.

This eminently readable critical introduction will put Laruelle on the map of Anglophone audiences. Gangle provides a magisterial account of Laruelle's difficult notions of Difference, in-One, and duality in their direct reworking of Nietzsche-Deleuze, Heidegger, and Derrida. But beyond that his narration of the philosophical history of the one and the multiple is strikingly original in its own right.
