==Book Description== | ==Book Description== | ||
+ | In ''[[Mathematics]] of the [[Transcendental]]'', [[Alain]] [[Badiou]] painstakingly works through the pertinent aspects of [[category]] [[theory]], demonstrating their [[internal]] [[logic]] and veracity, their derivation and [[distinction]] from [[set theory]], and the ‘[[thinking]] of being’. In doing so he sets out the basic onto-[[logical]] requirements of his greater and transcendental logics as articulated in his magnum opus,'' Logics of Worlds''. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Previously unpublished in either [[French]] or [[English]], ''Mathematics of the Transcendental'' provides Badiou’s readers with a much-needed [[complete]] elaboration of his [[understanding]] and use of category theory. The book is vital to understanding the [[mathematical]] and logical basis of his theory of appearing as elaborated in ''Logics of Worlds'' and [[other]] works and is essential [[reading]] for his many followers. |
