Tahir >>> haraldba-AT-online.no 12/01/04 05:31AM >>> The below link leads to friendly but quite devasting critique (as far as I can judge) of the claimed biological foundations for Deleuze vitalism/biophilosophy, written from a complexity theory perspective. The essay is quite long, but very much worthwhile and informa- tive, and also casts some light on some of the more obscure Deleluzian terms, such as Body without Organs and plane of immanence. It is not at all a hostile critique (more like a rescue effort from a friend), but the author none the less claims, among other things, that Deleuze's "ethology of becoming is -- from the biological standpoint -- nothing short of impossible."
