In "Assemblage Theory & Method", Ian Buchanan says that one of the main functions of Deleuze's (posthuman) philosophy is to overturn Platonism, particularly on the question of desire (not as lack, but as creative force). Whether this is just another footnote to Plato will depend, I suppose, on whether Deleuze remains as long in people's mind as Plato.

Interesting review. I wonder if “posthumanism”, like any other post, is fundamentally a gesture trapped in its own historical self-referential construct. Looking forward to the days of pre-post (or post-pre, if you prefer).
