Purchase options and add-ons

Although Leibniz's writing forms an enormous corpus, no single work stands as a canonical expression of his whole philosophy. In addition, the wide range of Leibniz's work--letters, published papers, and fragments on a variety of philosophical, religious, mathematical, and scientific questions over a fifty-year period--heightens the challenge of preparing an edition of his writings in English translation from the French and Latin.

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2016

Leibniz wanted to explain God's existence and the Bible in understandable scientific terms and mostly succeeds. Although Voltaire took him to task in Candide, Leibniz's philosophical canon holds up well. The text succeeds, if you remember to consider it from the viewpoint of a clandestine polymath, instead of a dilettante.

I really enjoy the quality of this book. I bought it on a Friday, it shipped immediately Saturday and took perhaps just over a week to arrive. It's a must have for those getting introduced to Leibniz and must be the first thing picked up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Leibniz was a unique thinker
Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2021

A lot of great ideas in this book, although I don't agree with many of what is in it. Leibniz was an original thinker to say the least, and some of his ideas are still important to this day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good selection and translation of one of the few moderns worth reading
Reviewed in Canada on December 7, 2021
Verified Purchase
I had no idea how sophisticated and sometimes plausible Leibniz was. He’s still bad, given he’s a modern philosopher, but he’s still not as scummy as the rest of those in his whole era and methodology (both Rationalist and Empiricist types). I’d like to add that the actual colour of the cover is more appealing than that on this product page. See the back cover picture here for reference.

A perfectly organized book of essays and letters of a man who had contacts with every major figure in the 17th century Europe. A charmer who blinded himself by incomparable talent in math and metaphysics.
