The only complete edition in English of Baruch Spinoza's works, this volume features Samuel Shirleys preeminent translations, distinguished at once by the lucidity and fluency with which they convey the flavor and meaning of Spinozas original texts. Michael L. Morgan provides a general introduction that places Spinoza in Western philosophy and culture and sketches the philosophical, scientific, religious, moral and political dimensions of Spinozas thought. Morgans brief introductions to each work give a succinct historical, biographical, and philosophical overview. A chronology and index are included.
