Kant believed that true enlightenment is the use of reason freely
in public. This book systematicaaly traces the philosophical
origins and development of the idea that the improvement of human
understanding requires public activity. Michael Losonsky focuses on
seventeenth-century discussions of the problem of irresolution and
the closely connected theme of the role of volition in human belief
formation. This involves a discussion of the work of Descartes,
Hobbes, Locke, Spinoza and Leibniz. Challenging the traditional
views of seventeenth-century philosophy and written in a lucid,
non-technical language, this book will be eagerly sought out by
historians of philosophy and students of the history of ideas.
