Review Quotes:
"Laruelle's questioning of the dualistic arbitrariness of all philosophies inevitably returns us to a monism that is theological, and an immediacy of experience that is religious. His consequent 'clandestine' engagement with Christianity is a provocation that no contemporary theologian should ignore." --Catherine Pickstock, Norris-Hulse Professor of Divinity, University of Cambridge, UK
"Clandestine Theology is the latest work of one of the most important and radical philosophers today. François Laruelle has radicalized philosophy by ridding it of its principle of self-sufficiency and by bringing it back to its metaphysical roots and simultaneously closer to the practice and posture of scientific thought. His theology is a surprising yet perfectly consistent part of his entire non-philosophical project also called the non-standard philosophy." --Katerina Kolozova, Professor of Philosophy of Law at the University American College - Skopje, North Macedonia
