<P>I do not know of any secondary critiques of the book, but I find that Negri himself is usually pretty good at explaining his interpretation. I cannot think of an interview or book that he's written that has not mentioned Spinoza. His reáding evidently changed his entire perspective of the political. I have read the book and find it very nice as a work of Spinozan scholarship and historiography as well as a novel reading of Spinoza's work as a whole. It is not for those who enjoy light leisurly reading however, and can be quite dry (as dry as Deleuze's early dissertation if not more so) if you do not have a deep interest in the annals and development of this brand of philosophy. However, if you do read it and give it the time to understand it, it is extremely rewarding. </P>
<P>The öne article he wrote, i believe it is 'Spinoza's Antimodernity' (which you can perhaps find on the web) is also very good at summarizing his interpretation. </P>

<DIV></DIV>>Does anyone know of useful explications of Negri's arguments in The Savage Anomaly? That is, not just rehashes, but actual work which tries to analyze what he means. Rehashes are easy enough to find, but explanations and analyses are less so. This is for a friend working through Negri's work on Spinoza.
