    Bruno Latour's Review of Stengers' book on Whitehead

    [re-dot because i added stuff.]

    here's a TON of other really cool looking articles on here too.

    EDIT:
    one of the many interesting things that can be gleaned from reading this piece, is one gets to see how Latour reads Deleuze in many respects. and when he wants to explain the virtual as a strictly 'retrospective' operation in thought, guess whom and what he cites as an authority? none other than one of the books i'm translating, mainly Zourabichvili's "Vocabulaire de Gilles Deleuze", entry on the Virtual.
    i find this very interesting that Latour essentially accepts Zourabichvili's reading of Deleuze, if in fact I am warranted in drawing such a conclusion. (see the footnotes to this article)
