Nicolas Malebranche (1638-1715) is one of the most important
philosophers of the seventeenth century after Descartes. A pioneer
of rationalism, he was one of the first to champion and to further
Cartesian ideas. Andrew Pyle places Malebranche's work in the
context of Descartes and other philosophers, and also in its
relation to ideas about faith and reason. He examines the entirety
of Malebranche's writings, including the famous The Search After
Truth, which was admired and criticized by both Leibniz and Locke.
Pyle presents an integrated account of Malebranche's central
theses, occasionalism and 'vision in God', before exploring and
assessing Malebranche's contribution to debates on physics and
biology, and his views on the soul, self-knowledge, grace and the
freedom of the will. This penetrating and wide-ranging study will
be of interest to not only philosophers, but also to historians of
science and philosophy, theologians, and students of the
Enlightenment or seventeenth century thought.
