An astounding book. At this point, I would be wary of the stuff he says about Badiou. No matter how much more coherent Badiou seems to be in comparison to Zizek, Badiou 's apparent coherence is always permeated by nothingness, which can erupt at any point. Badiou's view captures the "Real" in the sense of being full and empty at the same time. Thus, he avoids relegating God to a quilting point to paper over the void.
