Badiou's Deleuze

"'Badiou's Deleuze' presents the first thorough analysis of one of the most significant encounters in contemporary thought: Alain Badiou's summary interpretation and rejection of the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. Badiou's reading of Deleuze is largely laid out in his provocative book 'Deleuze: The Clamor of Being', a highly influential work of considerable power. 'Badiou's Deleuze' presents a detailed examination of Badiou's reading and argues that, while it fails to do justice to the Deleuzean project, it invites us to reconsider what Deleuze's philosophy amounts to, to reassess Deleuze's power to address the ultimate concerns of philosophy. 'Badiou's Deleuze' analyses the differing metaphysics of two of the most influential of recent continental philosophers, whose divergent views have helped ot shape much contemporary thought"--Publisher's description, back cover.
