Quentin Meillassouxs remarkable debut makes a strikingly original
contribution to contemporary French philosophy and is set to have a
significant impact on the future of Continental philosophy. Written
in a style that marries great clarity of expression with
argumentative rigour, After Finitude Provides bold readings of the
history of philosophy and sets out a devastating critique of the
unavowed fideism at the heart of post-Kantian
philosophy.Meillassoux introduces a startlingly novel philosophical
alternative to the forced choice between dogmatism and critique.
After Finitude proposes a new alliance between philosophy and
science and calls for an unequivocal halt to the creeping return of
religiosity in contemporary philosophical discourse.The exceptional
lucidity and the centrality of argument in Meillassoux;s writing
should appeal to Analytic as well as Continental philosophers,
while his critique of fideism will be of interest to anyone
preoccupied by the relation between philosophy, theology and
religion
