Review Quotes: Hamed Movahedi's book offers a profound renewal of our understanding of continuity. Although Deleuze is widely recognized as a thinker of difference, multiplicity, and virtuality, his metaphysics is deeply influenced by Leibniz, particularly in relation to the notions of continuous series and the event across multiple levels. Without a doubt, this study transforms the broader approach to Deleuze's philosophy.--Christian Leduc, University of Montréal
