Mohammad Reza Naderi's book "Infinity, Subjectivity, and Hegel and Lacan after Badiou" explores the trajectory of Alain Badiou's philosophy, focusing on the dominance of axiomatic thought and mathematical infinity. The author argues that axiomatic thought is the only form of thinking adequate to the infinity of being and demonstrates this through primary and secondary literature. The book also highlights the coherence of Badiou's intellectual development from early interventions to the publication of "Being and Event" and the formation of a theory called "discipline." By exploring three dimensions of disciplinary thinking—interiority, novelty, and beginning—Naderi provides a new framework for understanding the inner structure of Badiou's "procedures of truths" and develops a new interpretation that reveals the inner logic of Badiou's method.
