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. This important book combines both his
elaboration of the disjunctive synthesis between ontology and
onto-logy (the discourses of being as such and being-appearing)
from the perspective of Category Theory and the categorial basis of
his philosophical conception of 'being there'.Hitherto unpublished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 an
essential aid 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.
