Biography

Rosi Braidotti is Distinguished Professor in the Humanities and founding Director of the Centre for the Humanities at Utrecht University in The Netherlands.

"This is a volume with a guaranteed wide use as a general reference and also for the discursive and critical strength of the essays included. Philosophers, cultural and gender studies specialists, feminists, sociologists and political scientists would form its most ardent readership." - Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

"This volume explores the exposure of philosophy to various external stimuli and sources of disruption over the past forty years: geo-politics, literary historical innovation, globalisation and techno-scientific transformation. The book resonates with intellectual vigour and the sense of excitement." - Joanna Hodge, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
