formidable--theory on cinema to appear in the last half-century.

Reviews
After these books are published, there will be no need for anyone
else to write a how-to-understand-Deleuze book. The clarity of the
prose, the careful explanation of each difficult and important
concept, and the lack of any jargon whatsoever make this the
definitive commentary on Deleuze.
Dorothea Olkowski, University of Colorado
An extremely lucid and nearly seamless analysis of both of Deleuze's
cinema books.
