Deleuze and Psychology: Philosophical Provocations to Psychological Practices (Concepts for Critical Psychology) (Maria Nichterlein, John R. Morss, Aug 5, 2016)
This book overviews the philosophical contribution of Deleuze including the project he developed with Guattari. It goes on to explore the application of these ideas in three major dimensions of psychology: its unit of analysis, its method and its applications to the clinic. (amazon) (kindle 2016-8-6)
... the connections that Deleuze establishes between literature and the clinic are central to understanding how a philosophy of Difference articulates itself in grounded practices. ... literature is not understood in the familiar sense of narrative approaches in therapy, but as a way of being in language. (Lichterliein & Morss, 2016, preface, italics added)
With Deleuze we find inspiration in the creativity of the artist for visions of an energised psychology. (ibid, afterword)
