Reviews

Substantial and highly original, this is an extremely topical and relevant work, which essentially concerns the direction modern philosophy should be taking ... a tour de force. - Daniel W. Smith, Purdue University Badiou's Deleuze is a thorough and deep critical reading of Alain Badiou's interpretation of the work of Gilles Deleuze. An outstanding piece of original argument and scholarship, it makes a definitive intervention into an important debate. - James Williams, Dundee University This book will impress both partisans of Deleuze and Badiou with its scholarship and detailed approach. While it defends Deleuze against Badiou's interpretation, the provocative force of Badiou's critique motivates a deep and thorough re-reading of core Deleuzean ideas concerning time, the virtual, multiplicity, chance, and subjectivity. The book places Roffe amongst the handful or so of best English-language commentators on Deleuze. - Jack Reynolds, La Trobe University
