Product Description
Review
"The book succeeds amazingly well in its goal of presenting the systems of the three great rationalists in a very short space, covering a remarkable amount of ground effortlessly and without oversimplification." Michael Della Rocca, Yale University
Product Description
With clear explanations, elegant examples and insightful summaries, Understanding Rationalism unlocks these philosophers’ intricate metaphysical systems, which are surprising, compelling and sometimes bizarre. It also lays out their controversial stances on moral, political and religious problems. The study is framed by an opening discussion of the broad themes and attitudes common to these three philosophers and a closing analysis of the legacy they left for the rest of philosophy.
