The essays included in this volume are a mixture of old and new.
Three of them make their first appearance in print on this occa
sion (Nos III, IV, and V). The remaining four are based upon
materials previously published in learned journals or anthologies.
(However, these previously published papers have been revised and,
generally, expanded for inclusion here.) Detailed acknowl edgement
of prior publications is made in the notes to the relevant
articles. I am grateful to the editors of these several
publications for their kind permission to use this material. I am
grateful to an anonymous reader for the Western Ontario Series for
some useful corrigenda. And I should like to thank John Horty and
Lily Knezevich for their help in seeing this material through the
press. NICHOLAS RESCHER Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania May, 1980 xi
INTRODUCTION The unifying theme of these essays is their concern
with Leibniz's metaphysics of nature. In particular, they revolve
about his cos mology of creation and his conception of the real
world as one among infinitely many equipossible alternatives."
