Review

"Feltham, the English translator of Being and Event, reads Badiou's work with an intimate eye and a practiced lucidity...A useful introduction to Badiou's work, this book is packed with fresh ideas sufficient to satisfy the most advanced readers." - Professor Joan Copjec, University at Buffalo, USA.

"A brilliant commentary on the whole of Badiou's work, from his very first articles to some decisive developments in Logics of Worlds." - Quentin Meillassoux

"Not only does Feltham's book provide an incisively clear presentation of Badiou's work from his early writings on, it does so through an ongoing and stimulating dialog with the relevant classical and contemporary philosophers, and with an engaging political edge." - Alenka Zupancic

"...a clear and rigorous outline of Badiou's development, guiding us with a firm hand through the early Althusserian epistemology, through his Maoist phase and through all the complexities of the set theory ontology." - Mladen Dohar, Department of Philosophy, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia

'Any book about Alain Badiou by Oliver Feltham should be taken seriously ... Alain Badiou: Live Theory is a valuable book for those of us struggling to grasp the thematic trends in Badiou's thought ... given the originality of the work and Feltham's ability to keep the chronological trajectory of Badiou's thought before us, this book (which also contains a brief interview with Badiou at the end) is an important addition to the literature on this increasingly influential philosophical voice' Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews

'One of a number of important works published in recent years which explore Badiou's thinking and interrogate its significance within the field of contemporary European philosophy ... There is much here for critical debate amongst experienced readers of Badiou ... a valuable and welcome contribution to the reception of this important contemporary philosopher.' - French Studies
