Where on our bookshelves are Rosi Braidotti’s works — Spinoza, French philosophy, feminism or in a category of their own? For those of us who have followed Rosi’s nomadic pathway from analytic philosophy through currents of feminism to post-humanism, this book reminds us not just of her passionate engagement with ideas but also of the impact of her personality. The sheer breadth of her scholarship and her sympathies is mediated by her ability to inform and inspire. The essays here range over her interests and draw us in yet again to the debates close to her heart.
