Know about the book -

Death and Desire in Hegel, Heidegger and Deleuze(English, Electronic book text, Adkins Brent) is written by Adkins Brent and published by Edinburgh University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0748631801 (ISBN 10) and 9780748631803 (ISBN 13).

Despite what its title might suggest, Death and Desire is a meditation on life. Using the texts of Hegel, Heidegger, and Deleuze, the author argues that philosophy has been dominated by a form of thought that focuses exclusively on death. The importance of Death and Desire lies in its refusal of the morbidity of much contemporary philosophy. Its uniqueness lies in placing Hegel, Heidegger, and Deleuze in conversation. Its usefulness lies in the clarity with which it articulates and compares these very diverse thinkers.
