Publisher's summary

Baruch Spinoza was one of the most important and controversial thinkers of the 17th century. He rejected both the mind-body dualism of Descartes and traditional religious views, which got him violently attacked for atheism while he was actually seeking to redefine God as the whole of the laws of Nature. His metaphysics are a brilliant attempt to reconcile human freedom with a belief in scientific explanation, and his Theological-Political Treatise, the first argument for democracy by a major philosopher, contributed as much as the Declaration of Independence or Thomas Paine's Common Sense to modern liberal, secular, and democratic thinking.
Discover the gist of Spinoza's philosophy with this selection of 100 quotes taken among his most influential, in a practical and accessible format.

reading error or text error or?

A few phrases were repeated directly after their first reading, & seemed out of place. Don't know if this was a reading error, text error, or intentional(?). Otherwise, the reading was crystal clear. The book content itself, however, was a bit dryer than expected.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
