This volume tells the story of the legacy and impact of the great
German polymath Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716). Leibniz made
significant contributions to many areas, including philosophy,
mathematics, political and social theory, theology, and various
sciences. The essays in this volume explores the effects of
Leibniz's profound insights on subsequent generations of thinkers
by tracing the ways in which his ideas have been defended and
developed in the three centuries since his death. Each of the 11
essays is concerned with Leibniz's legacy and impact in a
particular area, and between them they show not just the depth of
Leibniz's talents but also the extent to which he shaped the
various domains to which he contributed, and in some cases
continues to shape them today. With essays written by experts such
as Nicholas Jolley, Pauline Phemister, and Philip Beeley, this
volume is essential reading not just for students of Leibniz but
also for those who wish to understand the game-changing impact made
by one of history's true universal geniuses.
