It is difficult to know how to approach it. What do you do with a book that dedicates an entire chapter to music and animal behavior—and then claims that it isn't a chapter? That presents itself as a network of "plateaus" that are precisely dated, but can be read in any order? That deploys a complex technical vocabulary drawn from a wide range of disciplines in the sciences, mathematics, and the humanities, but whose authors recommend that you read it as you would listen to a record?
"Philosophy, nothing but philosophy."2 Of a bastard line. 
The annals of official philosophy are populated by "bureaucrats of pure 
reason" who speak in "the shadow of the despot" and are in historical com- 
plicity with the State. They invent "a properly spiritual... absolute State that

Disassociation involves efforts to separate the warring parties through partition, peacekeeping, political/economic isolation, and deterrence. Association, on the other hand, seeks to facilitate interaction and mutual inter-dependence.
