Reviews

It was a pleasure to study this book, and it is a pleasure to engage with it in critical dialogue. * Alexander X.

Not only does Douglas present an original way of questioning Spinoza and his contemporaries, he also offers an interesting combination of analytical philosophy and contextual research in the history of ideas. * Han van Ruler, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online *
