Translated by W.H.White and A.K.Stirling. With an Introduction by
Don Garrett. Benedict de Spinoza lived a life of blameless
simplicity as a lens-grinder in Holland. And yet in his lifetime he
was expelled from the Jewish community in Amsterdam as a heretic,
and after his death his works were first banned by the Christian
authorities as atheistic, then hailed by humanists as the gospel of
Pantheism. His Ethics Demonstrated in Geometrical Order shows us
the reality behind this enigmatic figure. First published by his
friends after his premature death at the age of forty-four, the
Ethics uses the methods of Euclid to describe a single entity,
properly called both 'God' and 'Nature', of which mind and matter
are two manifestations. From this follow, in ways that are
strikingly modern, the identity of mind and body, the necessary
causation of events and actions, and the illusory nature of free
will.
