Gottfried Leibniz is one of the most influential and important
European philosophers of the early modern period. Although he wrote
no single comprehensive explanation of his philosophy, his
contributions to areas of philosophical thought range from
mathematics to cultural exchange. However, his ideas often seem
strange and abstract and his tendency to harmonize different views
can be hugely puzzling for the reader. Students of Lebniz's work
and thought regularly face very particular intellectual challenges.
"Leibniz: A Guide for the Perplexed" is a clear and thorough
account of Lebniz's philosophy, providing an ideal guide to the
important and complex thought of this key philosopher. The book
covers the whole range of Leibniz's thought, offering detailed
examination of the key areas of his ideas, including the
intersections between his metaphysics, epistemology, ethical and
political thought and his famous claim that reality consists of
monads (unities). Geared towards the specific requirements of
students who need to reach a sound understanding of Leibniz's
thought, the book provides a cogent and reliable survey of his work
and ideas. This is the ideal companion to the study of this most
influential and challenging of philosophers.
