Between Desire and Pleasure by Frida Beckman

Intervening into fields including posthumanist, disability, animal and feminist studies, and current critiques of capitalism and consumerism, Frida Beckman explores the possibility of recovering a theory of sexuality from Deleuze's work. She thereby makes a definitive contribution to cultural, conceptual and political debates about sexuality.
